Coach Grimes is entering her first season as the Junior High Girls assistant basketball coach. Grimes graduated from Ozark High School in Ozark, Arkansas, where she won basketball state championships in both her junior and senior years. After high school, Coach Grimes played college basketball at the University of Arkansas at Fort Smith for two years on a full scholarship. She also played as a walk-on at JBU and Hendrix. And after college, Grimes played one season on a semi-pro team out of Little Rock.
When asked about joining the coaching at Providence, Grimes answered, "God provided me with the opportunity to work at Providence. I love Providence because I can combine my love for the Lord and my love for basketball into one job."
Outside of coaching Grimes is a wife and stay-at-home mom. She is married to her wonderful, hard-working husband, Richard, and the couple has two children, Heaven and Shaffer. Heaven is in the 6th grade and has been at Providence since kindergarten, and Shaffer is in kindergarten.
