Elyssa Coleman joined the staff as an assistant coach for the 2025-26 Warhawks in August 2025.
 
Coleman arrives from UTSA after spending a season as the team’s director of operations. The former forward helped the Roadrunners to a 26-5 record last season, claiming UTSA’s first regular-season conference title since the 2008-09 season and setting a program record with 26 wins.
 
In her final season as a player, she helped the team go 18-15, claiming the Roadrunners’ first national postseason berth in 15 years with a trip to the WNIT. Coleman holds the program record for career blocks (140) and racked up 588 boards across three seasons and 94 games. The Houston, Texas, native was also named to the 2022-23 Conference-USA All-Defensive team.
