Conferences

Coaches

The current head coach is Robin Pingeton, who was hired in April 2010 to replace former head coach Cindy Stein. Stein resigned effective the end of the 2010 season under pressure from fans, media, and the administration.^{[ citation needed ]} Pingeton was the coach at Illinois State University.
