Huntingdon’s Osborne Resigns Post as Women’s Basketball Head Coach
MONTGOMERY, Ala. - Huntingdon Director of Athletics Buzz Phillips has announced that women’s basketball head coach Tara Osborne has resigned her position, effective immediately.
“I appreciate Tara’s two years with Huntingdon College, one as an assistant and one as the head coach,” Phillips said. “The hard work and dedication that she showed during the past two seasons has been unmatched. I personally wish her the best in her future endeavors and know she will be successful in whatever she chooses to pursue.”
During her two seasons with the Lady Hawks, Osborne helped the team to a 21-32 overall record. During the 2008-09 season, Huntingdon advanced to the Great South Athletic Conference Tournament Championship game. She also coached three all-conference selections, including Lori Bonds on two occasions.
Assistant coach Andrew Turner will remain on staff and handle the day-to-day operations of the program.
“I have the utmost confidence in Andrew Turner’s ability to keep the program together on an interim basis until a permanent replacement is found,” Phillips added.
