Denison University women's basketball welcomes Erin Kumler to the 2026-27 coaching staff.

Kumler joins the staff after two seasons as the assistant coach at St. Lawrence University, where she led practice planning, opponent scouting, and player development. As a Saint, Kumler contributed to a culture of academic excellence, coaching 12 academic all-conference players, including a Liberty League first-team all-conference player, and helped lead St. Lawrence to its first conference tournament semifinal game since the 2021-22 season, when Kumler was a player.

A native of Columbus, Ohio, Kumler attended Northfield Mount Hermon School during her junior and senior years, graduating with the girls basketball team award, and was a four-year member of the St. Lawrence University women's basketball team, ECAC Rookie of the month during her 2018-19 season, and was a part of the program's winningest season in 2021-22, her senior season.

Kumler graduated from St. Lawrence University with a Bachelor of Arts in Biochemistry and returned to her alma mater to earn a Master of Arts in Leadership.
