Adding a Spark
Laura Beeman has reached the pinnacle at the junior college level, now she takes her act to the WNBA.
Laura Beeman is going big time.
The Mt. San Antonio College women's basketball coach, who has guided the Mounties to four California Community College Athletic Association state titles, including the past three, has been hired as an assistant coach for the Los Angeles Sparks of the WNBA.
Beeman, only the second coach in CCCAA history to win three consecutive state titles, will work with the Sparks during the collegiate off-season this summer, then return to her Mt. SAC head coaching duties in time for next season.
"I'm very excited about this opportunity," Beeman said. "This will broaden my knowledge as a coach. I will be able to bring back information that will improve our ability as a team. To work with Michael Cooper, with all his tremenous experience and knowledge, is such a great opportunity. I will be able to pick and choose and see what will work with my players. It's very exciting."
