Mallory McAdams joined head coach Polly Thomason's staff prior to the 2012-13 season as a full-time assistant coach. McAdams also serves as the assistant coach for the women's golf program.
 
No stranger to the American Southwest Conference, McAdams was a three-year starter and team captain at Mary Hardin-Baylor. She helped guide the Cru to the ASC West Division title as a senior and was named to the ASC West All-Defensive Team. In addition, she was an honorable mention All-ASC West pick as a junior at UMHB.
 
A native of Robinson, McAdams was also a three-time Academic All-ASC selection, earning the award twice in basketball and once in golf. As a senior for the Cru, McAdams carded the third-lowest scored in program history.
 
McAdams was very active in the Belton community during her time as a student-athlete. She was involved with the Helping Hands Foundation, packaging and handing out food to needy families in the community, and helped organize the Adopt-A-Family program by her squad.
 
After earning her bachelor's degree from UMHB in exercise and sport science in 2009, McAdams went on to collect a master's degree in education from the same institution a year later.
