Jasmin Guinn joined the Academy of Art University women's basketball staff as an assistant coach in September 2017.
Guinn, owner of a 3.5 cumulative GPA in the School of Animation & Visual Effects over her four years of competition and
2016-17 NCAA Woman of the Year nominee, was the first Urban Knight to earn All-PacWest First Team in two different sports. She assumed the honor twice on the basketball court (
2014-15,
2015-16) and once in track & field as a long jumper (
2014).
Guinn was the PacWest Defender of the Year two of the award's first three years in existence, was twice voted the Most Valuable Player by her head coach, and helped Academy of Art win the first two PacWest Conference Tournament titles (
2012-13,
2013-14).
In her senior year with ART U Women's Basketball,
Guinn captained the winningest team in program history, was fourth in NCAA Division II in steals per game, and
D2CCA All-West Region First Team, while solidifying herself as Academy of Art's all-time career leader in points, rebounds, and steals.
Beyond her statistical achievements,
Guinn was a
semi-finalist for the prestigious Coach Wooden Citizenship Cup in 2016, the only student-athlete to be voted ARTYs Urban Knight of the Year twice (
2014,
2016), a four-time Academic All-PacWest honoree plus
USTFCCCA All-Academic Team in 2014, and she turned in more than 35 hours of community service per year in her career.
