McPhee-McCuin joined Pitt’s staff before the 2008 season, coming from Portland, where she was the recruiting coordinator. With the Panthers, McPhee-McCuin worked partly as a recruiter and also scouted opponents.

But McPhee-McCuin isn’t the only loss for the Panthers so far this offseason.

Also leaving are former Pitt players Shawnice “Pepper” Wilson, Sarah Ogoke and Kate Popovec. Wilson is transferring to Miami.

In March, Panthers associate coach Jeff Williams also left the program to take the head coaching job at La Salle.
