Ryan McGee joined the Women's Basketball coaching staff in August of 2023.
McGee is no stranger to the southeast region or the state of South Carolina as he comes to Greenwood from Francis Marion where he helped coach the Patriots to a 20-7 record and an 18-2 mark in Conference Carolinas play. The 20 wins were the most from a Francis Marion team since the 2015-2016 season. McGee also coach the Conference Carolinas player of the Year in Lauren Taylor as well as three other all-conference players. Taylor averaged 17.7 points per game and over eight rebounds a game on her way to first team all-region honors as well.
Before joining the staff in Florence, McGee was the assistant coach for Effingham County High School Boys Basketball team in Springfield, Ga during the 2021-22 season. During that season the Rebels finished for a tie atop their region, earned a trip to the GHSA State Playoffs, and had six all-region players.
The Columbus, Ga. native graduated from Berry College in Rome, Ga. in 2021 with a degree in Sports Administration. McGee competed in two sports in his college career, playing one year of basketball at Brevard College in North Carolina before transferring to Berry where he played two years of football. In his time with the Vikings, he was a part of two SAA championship teams as a starter and earned a trip to the NCAA DIII Playoffs in 2019.
In 2022, McGee graduated from Middle Georgia State with his Masters in Arts and Teaching.
