RICHMOND, Va. – VCU Head Women's Basketball Coach Marlene Stollings announced today the addition of Hayley Leake as the program's director of operations.

Leake, who brings both Atlantic 10 and national championship experience to the Rams, joins VCU after spending the 2011-12 season as head coach at Timberland High School in St. Louis, Mo. In her new role, Leake will assist Stollings with all day-to-day operations of the program, including database oversight, team travel and equipment coordination, academic supervision, and camp management.

"I am thoroughly excited to welcome one of my former A-10 student-athletes, Hayley Leake," said Stollings. "She is a rising superstar in women's basketball and will bring incredible insight as we transition to the A-10. She is a gifted teacher and has an innate ability to connect with young people. We are very pleased to add her to our Ram family."
