Georgia Parts Ways With Women’s Basketball Coach Katie Abrahamson-Henderson

The school launches a nationwide search for a leader to carry on the program’s legacy.

Overview

  • Georgia, which announced Saturday it had mutually parted with coach Katie Abrahamson-Henderson, began a nationwide search for her successor.
  • Athletic director Josh Brooks thanked her for four years of leadership and said the hire will prioritize a coach who connects with players, alumni, and supporters.
  • Abrahamson-Henderson finished 69-59 over four seasons with two NCAA Tournament appearances and only one winning record in Southeastern Conference play.
  • Georgia went 22-10 this season and exited the NCAA Tournament with an 82-73 overtime loss to Virginia in the first round.
  • The program’s high bar stems from Andy Landers’ long run of success, and Abrahamson-Henderson, hired in March 2022 as only the third full-time coach, once played for him.
