Robin Harmony is the first ever head coach of St. Thomas University's women's basketball team.

Before coming to St. Thomas, Coach Harmony spent 20 years on the University of Miami Women's Basketball coaching staff, 13 as associate head coach and 17 under Coach Ferne Labati.

With her apparent cool, calm and collective demeanor on the bench, Harmony is a valued teacher of the game - both on and off the court.

Harmony started at UM as a student-athlete, playing basketball for former Seattle Storm WNBA coach Lin Dunn from 1980-84. The Hershey, Pa. native was an impact performer all four-years playing at guard and forward. Harmony graduated from Hershey (PA) High School in 1980, where she was a three-year starter and MVP averaging 19 points, 14 rebounds and eight assists her senior season.

Harmony is still considered to be one of UM's greatest players, racking up 1,308 points, 760 rebounds, 314 steals and 445 assists in 125 games. Coach Harmony was inducted into the UM Sports Hall of Fame on April 14, 1997 for her outstanding athletic achievement.

Her collegiate career still ranks among the program's all-time best, as she is listed among the top 10 in games played, games started, field goals made, field goals attempted, assists, steals and points. Harmony is the only player in UM men's or women's basketball history to record 1,000 points, 750 rebounds, 400 assists and 300 steals during her career.

One of the longer standing records in the history of Miami women's basketball is most assists in a single game, which was established by Harmony during her junior season when she had 14 against cross-town rival Florida International University on December 4, 1982.

In her four years as a player, Miami went 76-50, including a 24-15 record her freshman year. The 24 overall wins set a UM single season record, which stood until 1989-90 when Miami went 25-6 with Harmony as an assistant coach. The current record is 30 wins from UM's 30-2 "Sweet Sixteen" season in 1991-92 with Harmony as the associate head coach.

In 1984, Harmony received her B.S. in Education and Recreation and then traveled abroad to England as a player/coach for the Avon Cosmetics Basketball Club. Avon would go on to win the league championship with Harmony as the Most Valuable Player.
