Chloe Lamb joined the University of Minnesota women’s basketball staff in April 2024. Lamb serves as director of player development / assistant coach for Minnesota. 

She joined the Gophers after a two-year stint as an assistant coach at the University of Mary in Bismarck, N.D., where she also specialized in player development and recruiting while with the Marauders.

In her first season at Minnesota, Lamb assisted the Gophers to a 25-11 mark and winning the 2025 WBIT (Women’s Basketball Invitation Tournament). The Maroon & Gold recorded their first 25 win season since 2004-05 (26-8, 12-4 B1G) and back-to-back 20 win seasons since 2017-18 and 2018-19. Lamb assisted in coaching Amaya Battle and Grace Grocholski to All-Big Ten Honorable Mention accolades. 

Lamb played for Minnesota head Coach Dawn Plitzuweit at South Dakota from 2017-22 and was named the 2022 Summit League Player of the Year after leading the Coyotes to their first NCAA Division I Sweet 16 appearance. She was the 2022 Summit League Tournament MVP and helped the Coyotes claim both the Summit League regular season and tournament titles. Lamb is a four-time All-Summit League selection and was a First-Team member in her final two seasons at South Dakota.

In 2023-24, Lamb helped the University of Mary to an overall record of 22-11 and a 16-6 conference mark. The 22 overall wins were the most by the Marauders since they also had 22 wins in the 2019-20 season. The 16 conference wins were the most by the program since it totaled 17 in the 2004-05 season. The program went 36-24 overall and 28-16 in league play in the two years with Lamb on the staff.

At the end of her South Dakota career, Lamb was the school's career leader in games played (162), and she finished her career third in program history in scoring (1,884 points), second in 3-pointers (253) and seventh in steals (196). She was a member of four straight NCAA tournament teams.

Lamb earned Summit League Player of the Year honors in 2021-22 after averaging 15.8 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.7 steals per game while starting all 35 games. She was also named to the All-Summit League First Team and the conference's all-defensive team. In the NCAA tournament, she led the Coyotes to wins against Ole Miss and Baylor on the opening weekend.
