Erin Dickerson has added to her title entering year two on the Towson University women’s basketball staff. Head coach Niki Reid Geckeler named Dickerson the Associate Head Coach and Recruiting Coordinator for the program in the summer of 2016.
In her first year on the bench for the Tigers, Dickerson was responsible for the development of the guards. A trio of Tiger guards experienced plenty of success under Dickerson’s tutelage. Raven Bankston earned Third Team All-Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) accolades after ranking second in the league while averaging 15.5 points per game. Sianni Martin was named the CAA Rookie of the Week three times, while Dominique Johnson scored the 1,000th point of her career and broke the school record for career three-pointers.
Dickerson was also responsible for working with the stretch forwards last season. Under her watch, Brittany Tarr became the first Tiger freshman since Dovile Miliauskaite in 2007-08 to pull down at least 100 rebounds in her rookie campaign. Dickerson also served as the team’s defensive coordinator.
Dickerson played a key role in the Tigers’ incoming recruiting class that includes a pair of talented incoming freshmen from New York in Etalyia Vogt and Nukiya Mayo, and the #16 junior college prospect in the country, Mary Cuevas.
Prior to coming to Towson, Dickerson spent two years as an assistant at Illinois State. There she worked with the guards and helped recruit a junior college All-American and the 36th ranked point guard prospect in the nation. Dickerson also spent three years at La Salle as an assistant coach and served as the recruiting coordinator there for two of those three seasons. She began her coaching career at Furman.
