Reason for departure: Palmateer took over a Monmouth program that was in great shape as current Fordham head coach Stephanie Gaitley built the program into a contender. Palmateer continued that success but as the school moved into a new conference, the success didn’t follow. The Hawks never had a really bad season, but they seemed to be middling around .500. Palmateer was let go after a 2-7 start to this season and assistant coach Jody Craig was named head coach. No word on if Craig is the permanent replacement or not.
New coach/previous position: Jody Craig, Monmouth assistant coach
