Entering her 11th season as an NCAA Division I assistant coach, Jualeah Woods is in her fourth year at San Diego State.

Woods is the Aztecs' recruiting coordinator, while her on-court duties include working with the forwards and centers, as well as concentrating on team defense.

Hired in May of 2005, Woods immediately got to work on the recruiting trail, playing an instrumental part in laying a strong foundation for the future success of Aztec basketball.

Since her arrival, the team has become a Mountain West Conference contender, finishing as runner-up at the league championships in 2008 and posting an 18-13 record, the Aztecs' most wins in 11 years. She also helped tutor a pair of 2007-08 league honorable mention selections in center Paris Johnson and forward Allison Duffy.

Woods most recently was an assistant coach at Oregon State for five years, serving as the program's recruiting coordinator for the last three seasons. The Beavers made four consecutive WNIT appearances from 2001-04, and advanced to the quarterfinals in 2004.

Before moving to Corvallis, she was an assistant coach for two seasons at California. She started her coaching career at Santa Monica High School as both an assistant and later as the head girls' basketball coach from 1994-97.

Woods was a four-year starter at small forward and two-time team captain at USC from 1990-94. The Berkeley, Calif., native helped lead the Women of Troy to four NCAA tournament appearances, including trips to the Elite Eight in 1993 and 1994 and the Sweet 16 in 1992.

Woods earned her bachelor's degree in public administration from USC in 1994.
