Hardin-Simmons women's head coach Julie Goodenough was named head coach at Division I Oklahoma State on Wednesday, April 10. Goodenough, 33, has led the HSU program to a 188-54 record in her nine years at the helm, including a 26-2 record and a ranking as high as No. 2 in the D3hoops.com Top 25 this past season.

"Coach Goodenough has an amazing record in a relatively short period of time," OSU athletic director Don Phillips said. "The success she has achieved at the Division III level speaks volumes about her ability."

Goodenough is the all-time winningest coach in Hardin-Simmons history.
