Coach Bree has been the leader of the Lady Panthers since Day 1 (April 10, 2010) as Head Coach of Team Defense (the Lady Panthers' former name before changing it in the Fall of 2010). She has a daughter who plays for the program and has a dedicated, loyal passion for the sport of Basketball.

Her passion is to watch the kids excel in their own personal development being trained by her awesome staff of coaches!
