West Liberty University Athletics

    The winningest women's basketball coach in West Virginia history and a member of the West Liberty Hall of Fame, Lynn Ullom spent more than three decades on the university campus as a student, coach, and administrator.
    The Cameron, W.Va. native transformed the Lady Hilltopper basketball program into a perennial NCAA Division II Atlantic Region power, averaging more than 20 wins a season throughout his 26-year coaching career. Ullom's WLU women posted 17 20-win seasons, won five regular-season conference titles, six conference tournament crowns, and earned 14 NCAA tournament bids. His 534-252 (.679) career record still ranks among the best all-time in the NCAA Division II ranks.
    The 3-time Conference Coach of the Year was the first women's sports coach to earn the prestigious West Virginia College Coach of the Year Award from the West Virginia Sportswriters Association. He was also named the 2011 WBCA Region 2 Coach of the Year and was a 2016 WBCA Victory Award Club recipient.
    Ullom, a West Liberty alumnus, stepped down as head women's basketball coach in 2017 when he was named athletic director at West Liberty where he embarked on a period of significant growth and enhancements to the athletic department.
