Former collegiate and professional basketball player Lindsey Hicks will join the Alabama women’s basketball staff as its video coordinator, which was announced by Head Coach Kristy Curry on Sunday.

“I am excited to announce Lindsey to our staff to handle our video and assist in the daily operations of the program,” said Curry. “She brings a wealth of experience as a player and professional that will greatly enhance our program.”

Hicks, who was a member of Purdue’s No. 1 recruiting class in 2000, won three Big Ten titles playing under Curry and was team captain her senior year. Following graduation, Hicks went on to play overseas, where she enjoyed a successful six-year career in Finland, Denmark, Sweden and Switzerland. She was named MVP of the Danish League, winner of the Finnish Cup Championship and team captain of the Swedish teams three years in a row.

After hanging up her playing shoes in 2010, Hicks went on to become an assistant women’s basketball coach at Morehead State University, where she spent two seasons. While in Morehead, she assisted with recruiting, scouting, post-player development and game planning, along with the video editing, team academics and travel. Since 2012, Hicks has spent time working as a sales and marketing manager and also has experience serving as a personal trainer.
