Most recently defeating Jackson on their home court in the Area Championship.
Canova begins his 18th season of coaching. Over the past 18 years Canova has worked some of the top basketball camps in the country, including the Louisiana Tech Camp of Champions and the Doug Bruno Camps in Chicago. Canova also had the honor of being a clinician at the Women's Basketball Final Four held in San Antonio, TX.
Canova has averaged 20 wins per season in his last 5 years of coaching high school girl's basketball.

Coach Brett Kittrell
The newest member of the UMS girls basketball staff is Brett Kittrell. Coach K comes from Glenwood High School in Phenix City, AL. Coach K is currently a Physical Education major at the University of South Alabama. Coach Kittrell also coaches 7th grade football at UMS.
"Coach K reminds me a lot of myself when I was in college. He is willing to do whatever it takes to become a successful coach. He is an extremely hard worker, and will do whatever is asked of him to help better our program. Once he spends some practice time with us and gets a grasp on our system he'll be a tremendous asset to our program. I am excited about having him with us." says Coach Canova.
Coach Kittrell will be both the JV coach and Varsity assistant coach.
