The new Missouri State women’s basketball head coach was formally introduced at a press conference on Wednesday, April 17.

"Today is a new day for Lady Bear basketball," Moats said. "We're hiring a seasoned veteran on a number of fronts who has earned the right to be a head coach."

Agugua-Hamilton spent her last six years at Michigan State University, four of which she was associate head coach.
