Tomekia Reed was announced as the new head women's basketball coach at Charlotte on Thursday afternoon, ending one of the most historic runs in the sport in the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) with five consecutive regular season titles and three tournament titles.

"I want to thank Tomekia for what she has done for Jackson State women's basketball," VP/Director of Athletics Ashley Robinson said. "The work she did during her time here at Jackson State is unmatched and we wish her nothing but the best at Charlotte."

Jackson State will begin a national search immediately for her replacement.
