Coach Fitzgerald enters his sixth season at the helm of the women's basketball program. 

In his first season, Coach Fitzgerald guided the Griffins to a 12-win season and a 7-7 record in conference play. The Griffins were the No. 4 team in the SLIAC Tournament and opened with a win over No. 5 Eureka in the Quarterfinals. The team fell in the SLIAC Semifinals against No. 1 Webster. Fontbonne had had four players earn SLIAC Postseason awards, while Rylee Stafford was named to the D3hoops.com All-Region 8 Third Team. 

Fitzgerald has been with Fontbonne since 2017 as he's been assisting with opponent scouting, game plans, practice plans, and recruiting. 

Outside of Fontbonne, Fitzgerald is currently a Pure Sweat Basketball Skills Coach since 2015. There, he provides purposeful, comprehensive, and game-like training for some of the top basketball players in the St. Louis Area.

Prior to his time with Pure Sweat and Fontbonne, Fitzgerald spent 10 years at Affton High School, including five as the head men's basketball coach.
