Head coach

The Panthers are led by first-year coach Chelsea Banbury, who was hired as the new head coach in May 2019 following DeUnna Hendrix's departure to Miami-Ohio. Banbury spent 11 years on the coaching staff of Florida Gulf Coast, including the past five as the associate head coach. Banbury was a 2008 graduate of FGCU, where she played on the basketball team. She then helped the Eagles to postseason appearances in all 11 of her seasons on the coaching staff, including six NCAA tournaments.[4]
