COLUMBUS, Ohio – Capital University head women's basketball coach Camille McPherson announced the addition of Schyler Fennimore to her coaching staff. Fennimore will serve as an assistant coach for the Comets, joining longtime assistant Jason Wright alongside McPherson. 

"I am beyond excited to start this next journey at Capital University," said Fennimore. "As a former member of the OAC, I know firsthand how tough this conference is, and I am up to the challenge and to be back in Ohio. I would love to give a special thank you to my previous mentors in Brian Sansom and Gabby Holko for helping me get to this point in my career. I would also like to say thank you to head coach Camille McPherson for this opportunity at Capital. Go Comets!"

"We're very excited to have Schyler joining our program and the Capital community," said McPherson. "Her experience competing in the OAC, coaching and recruiting at the Division III level, and her passion for the game will have a direct impact on our program and our student-athletes."

Fennimore is joining the Comets coaching staff after most recently serving as an assistant coach at Susquehanna University. While with the River Hawks, Schyler helped oversee academic progress of the team, coordinate recruiting visits and social media for the team, assist with fundraising efforts and composing graphics and highlights for recruiting purposes. 

On the court, Fennimore assisted in the mentorship and player development of a 2022 All-American Strength and Conditioning Athlete of the Year.  Additionally, she helped coach two All-Conference selections and oversee the academic progress of 14 Academic Honor Roll student-athletes. Furthermore, Schyler helped the team be named as a WBCA All-Academic Special Mention program both years she was with the River Hawks. 

Prior to joining Susquehanna, Fennimore served as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator for Bethany College. There, she assisted the program to qualify for the PAC Tournament in back-to-back seasons. With Bethany, she oversaw the recruitment of 16 student-athletes, while also aiding in numerous scouting, coaching, and administrative tasks. 

Prior to kick starting her coaching career, Schyler played collegiate basketball at familiar OAC opponent Muskingum University. With the Muskies, Schyler was a four-year letter winner. While competing as a student-athlete, she also remained active off the court and completed two semesters of coaching practicum with both the women's basketball and lacrosse teams. She also served as a member of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. Additionally, she helped organize the One Love Foundation Game for both men's and women's lacrosse. 

Professionally, Schyler has become an active member in the Women's Basketball Coaches Association, being a member of the organization since 2018. She has also participated in the WBCA Convention twice, once as an on-court demonstrator in 2018 and again as an attendee in 2020.
