Grambling State University women’s basketball coach Courtney Simmons announced the addition of Joshua Snowden to the GSU coaching staff, on Sunday afternoon.
“I am excited to have Coach Josh Snowden on my staff,” said Simmons. “He is passionate about the future of Grambling State women’s basketball. His energy accompanied by his past championship pedigree is exactly what we need.”
Snowden comes to Grambling after spending four seasons at Troy. Since joining the staff, the Trojans won a pair of Sun Belt regular season title, were crowned the 2021 Sun Belt tournament champions and made an NCAA tournament appearance. Troy also hosted in-state foe Alabama in the opening round of the WNIT during Snowden’s tenure.
After spending two years as a student manager, Snowden was promoted to Director of Equipment in September of 2021. In his new role, Snowden handles the program’s inventory, assists in ordering team gear and aids in travel planning.
Snowden plays a vital role in ensuring Troy is prepared for competition by handling all pregame preparation including uniforms and fueling stations. Out of season, he also helps in skill development, organizing campus events and general office needs.
A native of Pensacola, Fla., Snowden is a senior set to receive his bachelors degree in sports management with a minor in sport coaching.
