Britney Anderson

Assistant Coach

A key member to Virginia Tech’s postseason success in the early-2000s, former women’s basketball standout Britney Anderson returned to her alma mater in June 2015 as an assistant coach.
 
With Anderson on the sidelines, the Hokies have advanced to the postseason three straight seasons (2016-18), highlighted by a run to the 2018 WNIT Championship game.
 
Prior to her return to Blacksburg, Anderson served as an assistant coach at Radford University (2013-15), aiding in the resurgence of its women’s basketball program. Her responsibilities included recruiting, scouting, scheduling, community service and camp coordination, while focusing on wing player development.
 
Under Anderson’s tutelage, the Highlanders were the Big South’s top 3-point shooting team (.337) in 2014-15. In addition, Anderson helped develop two All-Big South honorees: Ayana Avery and Aisha Foy.
 
While playing for the Hokies from 2003-07, Anderson guided Tech to three NCAA tournament appearances and a WNIT berth. Anderson shot an impressive 44.6 percent from the floor for her career and averaged 10.2 points per game during her senior campaign.
 
Anderson was also a standout high school player in the NRV, leading Blacksburg High School to the Virginia High School League Group AA Girls’ Basketball State Championship during her senior year. After averaging 18.2 points and 9.2 rebounds per game that season, Anderson was named Group AA State Player of the Year and Virginia’s Miss Basketball.
 
Graduating from Virginia Tech in 2007 with a bachelor’s degree in apparel design and merchandise management, Anderson served as the corporate recruiter for M.C. Dean, Inc. in Dulles, Va., from 2008 to 2013. During that time frame, Anderson also coached girls' basketball at Potomac Falls High School in Potomac Falls, Va., and in the AAU ranks with Team Unique 15U, Matrix 15U and PSPA 12U / 16U.

Anderson resides in Blacksburg with her dog, Fifi.
