Dario Hernandez is in his first season as an Assistant Coach with the Columbus State women's basketball program.

Hernandez came to Columbus State after spending the last six seasons at the NCAA Division I level, most recently with Wagner University.

Hernandez, who began his collegiate coaching career in 2010 at Adelphi University, spent four seasons at Providence where his duties included directing the Big East program's national and international recruiting efforts. With PC, he also played a major role in guard skill development, including video breakdowns as well as pre and postseason workouts.

At Providence, Hernandez also implemented, coordinated and directed the "Susan Robinson Fruchtl Elite Camp" which was instrumental in signing 75 percent of the Friars' 2016 recruiting class. He also developed scouting reports and breakdown of upcoming Friar opponents, including pre-game and post-game reports, while serving as a liaison between PC's women's basketball program and the college's admissions/compliance departments.

Prior to his four-year tenure at Providence, Hernandez spent one season as an assistant coach for the Saint Francis University Red Flash. During his time with SFU, Hernandez was responsible for point guard development, and coordinated the program's coaching clinic and team camp, in addition to assisting with the scout team and recruiting.

Hernandez worked at Big Apple Basketball in Queens from 2005-10 where he served as a coach, administrative assistant and academic coordinator. In addition to his coaching experience, Hernandez played one season at both Schenectady County Community College and Southern Vermont College.

Hernandez is a native of Corona, N.Y. and graduated from Shaw University in 2009 with his bachelor's degree in recreation.
