Ariana Moore

Ariana Moore joined the staff in Spring 2013 as special assistant to the head coach before moving into her current director of women’s basketball operations role in June 2022.

In her operations role, Moore is responsible for coordinating all team activities, including all aspects of the team’s travel arrangements, and creates the team’s game schedule as well. She communicates all scheduling items to the team and serves as the program’s liaison with various other areas within the athletics department.

While her first role with the program was to assist with coordinating head coach Dawn Staley’s schedule and the G-Hive fan group, organizing team community outreach opportunities, Moore also brought a creative vision to the program. Her creativity helped the Gamecocks bring their annual themes and brand to life through photo and video shoots that enhanced the social and in-venue visuals.

Prior to coming to South Carolina, Moore worked for a real estate investment organization. She was a four-year letterwinner under Staley at Temple.

Moore graduated from Temple in 2005 with a bachelor’s degree in tourism and hospitality management with a specialization in sport and recreation management. She has two sons, Madden and Mason, who are making their own names in basketball as well.
