Amy Eagan has been named as the next head coach for the Drury University women’s basketball program. Drury President Dr. Timothy Cloyd and Vice President and Director of Athletics Corey Bray announced Eagan’s promotion Monday after Molly Miller stepped down last week to become the head coach at Grand Canyon University. Eagan was an assistant coach for Drury this past season helping the Lady Panthers to a 32-0 record, a number one national ranking in NCAA Division II throughout the year, and the team’s fourth straight GLVC championship. Eagan came to Drury after a successful six year stint as the head coach of Truman State in Kirksville. She will enter her 12th season as a head women’s college basketball coach next winter.
