Duffy names Coleman as assistant coach

Head coach Megan Duffy announced in a statement Itoro Coleman will be joining the Marquette women’s basketball coaching staff as an assistant coach, replacing Scott Merritt.

“We are thrilled to welcome Itoro Coleman, her husband Harold and their family to Marquette,” Duffy said in the statement. “I was blown away by her commitment to excellence both on and off the court. Itoro brings an incredible passion and competitiveness to the game of basketball and will make an immediate impact on both current and future Marquette student-athletes.”
