RALEIGH, North Carolina -- Rachel Bullard will step down after five seasons as head women's basketball coach at Saint Augustine's University (SAU) to spend more time with her family, the SAU athletic department announced Tuesday, July 21, 2015. A national search for a new head coach will begin immediately.

"We appreciate the service she has given us the past five seasons," SAU Athletic Director George Williams said. "We wish her the best in her future endeavors."

The Lady Falcons performed well on the court and in the classroom under Bullard, earning five consecutive CIAA conference highest team grade point average awards. They also posted a winning overall record during Bullard's tenure including a 19-11 mark her first season.

Bullard coached three All-CIAA scholar-athletes, two conference players of the year and one CIAA Woman of the Year. She also coached five All-CIAA Rookie scholar-athletes including two who were selected league rookies of the year. In 2013, four Lady Falcons made the five-player All-CIAA Rookie Team

Bullard will continue her head coaching duties through August 17.
