ABILENE – Head women's basketball coach
Julie Goodenough has announced the addition of
Weston Jameson to her staff as an assistant coach. Jameson comes to ACU after spending a season as the assistant coach at Arkansas State, and prior to that spent five seasons as an assistant at Harding University in Searcy, Ark.
"I am so excited to add Coach Jameson to our staff," said Goodenough. "With invaluable Division I and Division II coaching and recruiting experience, he really checks all of the boxes in what we needed to add to our program. Weston is very personable and has established himself as a high character and aggressive recruiter, who has been evaluating in our recruiting area for basically his entire coaching career. I believe he will be able to hit the ground running with on court coaching as well. He already knows a great deal about our style of play and will be a huge asset to continue developing our perimeter players. Weston's experience as a student athlete and coach at Harding give him a unique perspective on the blessing and benefit of coaching in an intentional Christian environment."
Jameson was on staff last year when the A-State made the Sun Belt Conference Tournament, and in five years with Harding, he helped lead the Bison to a 104-48 record. During his tenure in Searcy, Jameson helped lead Harding to five Great American Conference Tournament berths, two GAC regular-season championship and tournament crown, as well as an NCAA Central Region Tournament title and an NCAA Division II Final Four appearance.
Prior to Harding, Jameson worked as the junior boys head coach and senior boys assistant coach at Central Arkansas Christian School in North Little Rock in 2014-15.
"I am incredibly grateful to Coach Goodenough for the opportunity to join her, Coach Lambert, Coach Cole, and this talented team," said Jameson. "I'm so appreciative of my time at Arkansas State, and my readiness to step into this new role at ACU is largely due to Coach Daniel, the rest of the staff, and players at ASU. Coach Goodenough and her staff have built something special here and I'm excited to join them as we enter our first year in the WAC. My family and I cannot wait to experience everything the Abilene Christian community offers."
As a player, Jameson dished out 474 assists, which ranks fourth on Harding's career list and helped the Bison to the 2014 GAC Tournament title. During his career, he played in three NCAA Division II Tournaments. Jameson graduated from Harding in December 2013 with a bachelor's degree in kinesiology. In 2015, he graduated with his Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) from Southern Arkansas University.
Jameson is married to Lauren Jameson, a member of the Harding women's basketball team from 2010-14, and the couple has two daughters, Berklee and Kelynn, and a son, Harrison.
