Courtney Alexander returned to her alma mater as an assistant coach for the women''s basketball program in December 2022. She enters her second season with the Crimson Hawks in 2023-24.

Meanwhile, Baughman and guard Maria Cerro emerged to form one of the top all-around backcourt duos in the region.Â
Alexander is actively involved in multiple day-to-day aspects within the program, including practice planning, recruiting, gameplanning, administrative tasks, camp coordination, among other assignments.Â
Alexander played at IUP for four seasons from 2016-20 and again in 2021-22, making 100 career appearances as a Crimson hawk. She shot 37% from beyond the arc for her career, including 40.1% in 2019-20.Â
A nursing major, Alexander broke the program single-game record with nine 3-pointers and scored a career-high 31 points in December 2021 against Shippensburg.Â
