Margaree King Richard: Army’s veteran-minded basketball operator with West Point roots
Margaree King Richard is best known at Army West Point as a former player-turned-coach, bringing rare institutional knowledge, leadership, and a military-academic fit that matters as much as on-court skill. Her documented playing profile shows a freshman guard who contributed as a distributor, ranking fourth on the team with 43 assists while appearing in 17 games, and her later coaching roles suggest a strong grasp of structure, development, and team culture. She is a compelling fit for programs that value discipline, communication, and staff stability over flash.
