Jenny Huth joined the Oregon State staff in the summer of 2021.

During her first season with the Beavers, Huth helped Oregon State to a record of 17-14, including a run to the quarterfinals of the WNIT. THe campaign featured a pair of wins over ranked opponents, as well as an unprecedented stretch in which OSU played five-straight games against ranked opposition.

Huth spent the last three seasons as head coach at Northern Colorado, leading the Bears to 48-41 record during her tenure. In her first year at UNC, the team went 21-11 and made an appearance in the WNIT. The Bears made the Big Sky Tournament semi-finals twice during Huth’s three seasons, and posted seven All-Big Sky selections over that span.

Prior to joining Northern Colorado, Huth spent seven seasons as an assistant coach at UCLA. She helped the Bruins post a mark of 148-85 from 2011-18, making four NCAA Tournament appearances, highlighted by an Elite Eight run in 2018. Before coming to UCLA, Huth made coaching stops as an assistant at Oakland University and as a graduate assistant at Florida State.

“My family and I are thrilled to make the move to Corvallis and back to the Pac-12, the No. 1 conference for women’s basketball,” Huth said. “I’m excited to be a part of Coach Rueck’s program and the tremendous success he has built at Oregon State. We cannot wait to integrate into this awesome basketball community and see Beaver Nation from the other side. To be at the top level of women’s basketball again is something I do not take for granted. I look forward to using what I’ve learned as a head coach and be an even better assistant. I’ve respected Coach Rueck and his staff from a far as well as up close; from top to bottom this is a great culture and I’m grateful for the opportunity to join the family. Let’s Go Beavs!”

A standout player for Colorado from 1998-02, Huth was a three-time All-Big 12 selection and helped guide the Buffaloes to the Elite Eight her senior season. She finished her career among the top 10 at CU in career scoring with 1,399 points, 3-pointers with 203 and 3-point shooting percentage at 40.7. Huth also helped lead the United States to a gold medal at the 2001 World University Games. Following her collegiate career, she played professionally in Spain and for the National Women’s Basketball League’s Colorado Chill.
