From Star Staff Reports

Reprinted here in its entirety.

JACKSONVILLE — Jacksonville State women's basketball coach Becky Geyer has reduced her coach staff by one, but hired two former Division I coaches to make it work.

Janine Hoffman started the women's program at Birmingham-Southern and guided it through its short-lived Division I tenure. Tonya Mackey was recently the head coach at South Carolina State.

Together, they have 28 years of college coaching experience.

Geyer had a three-person staff her first two seasons with the Gamecocks, but sacrificed quantity for quality. Recently signing to a two-year contract extension through 2012 also helped her attract the former head coaches.
