With Harris gone from the staff, the Bulldogs have turned to a familiar face in the program as volunteer assistant Mark DeNoyelles will step up and fill in Harris' shoes beginning this season as the beginning of the campaign fast approaches.

With Harris gone from the staff, the Bulldogs have turned to a familiar face in the program as volunteer assistant Mark DeNoyelles will step up and fill in Harris' shoes beginning this season as the beginning of the campaign fast approaches. DeNoyelles has a proven track record of success at the levels he has coached at during his career and made a nice transition to the college level with Ferris."I'm thrilled that Coach DeNoyelles was so eager to accept the responsibilities of becoming a full-time coach on our staff," Ferris women's basketball head coach Tracey Dorow said. "He brings a wealth of experience and a passion for helping others maximize their potential. In the short time he has been at Ferris State, he has already made a
major impact in our program."In addition to DeNoyelles, Ferris will be getting student assistant help from former Bulldog honorable mention All-American player Rachel Folcik.
"It's great to have Rachel back with us," said Dorow, who applauded the hard work Folcik put in as the program searched for a full-time assistant to replace Harris. "She has already done so many little things to improve the quality of our program. Rachel had an outstanding playing career and is now sharing her knowledge and enthusiasm with her successors. She was a dominant player and is also one of the best up-and-coming coaches in the country. She is an invaluable addition to our staff."
Having two coaches with experience filling out the coaching staff should be a positive for Dorow's program this season.
