Meet Houston Cougars assistant coach Leah Foster

POSTED: July 20, 2011 -- 2:05 p.m. CDT

Leah Foster is the newest member of head coach Todd Buchanan's Houston Cougars' coaching staff.

Coach Foster returns to the state of Texas after three seasons as an assistant coach at Dartmouth College.

One of the main reasons Coach Foster decided to leave Dartmouth for UH was Coach Buchanan.

"First and foremost, Coach Buchanan has done an awesome job," Foster said. "Upon meeting him, I knew it was a great fit. We talk about Cougar Pride and 'Let's go Coogs!'; and, he is all about it. As well as Coach (Wade) Scott and Coach (Ravon) Justice, I couldn't ask for a better staff."

The University of Houston is "definitely a school that you can say great things about."
