Jeremiah Shirk - Assistant Coach
Jeremiah Shirk was named Assistant Women's Basketball Coach by Head Women's Basketball Coach Joe Reints in the summer of 2007. Shirk replaces Ben Coomes who has taken a position as an assistant at Belmont University in Nashville, TN.
Shirk, from Bloomington, Indiana has been associated with Indiana University athletics since 1995. His roles at IU have ranged from video technician to Director of Women's Basketball Operations. Shirk also worked with the IU football program on several levels. Shirk, a graduate of Indiana University, was varsity manager under the legendary Bobby Knight from 1995-1999.

Coach Reints says, "Jeremiah is a great young coach who comes from a rich tradition in Indiana. He loves the game and has a passion to learn. His skills are varied, from coaching to administrative duties."
About his time at Lambuth Shrik said "This is an opportunity I am excited about. It was a wonderful time at Indiana but this is a chance to coach at a national power at the NAIA level. Coach Reints has proven himself as one of the bright young minds in the country. It will be a pleasure to work with him at Lambuth."
