Jazmyne Geist was hired as a graduate assistant coach under head coach Maria Marchesano on April 30, 2021. She was promoted to a full-time assistant role prior to the 2022-23 season.
In her first season with the Mastodons, the 'Dons made a jump in nearly all statistical categories, including points per game (53.7-60.1), free throw percentage (71.4-81.9), assists per game (9.5-12.7) and 3-point percentage (25.0-32.5). The Mastodons' 81.9 percent free throw clip was the second-best in the country in 2021-22 and was the best in program history. She helped the 'Dons to their most wins since 2014-15 and most league wins since 2013-14. She also helped lead Ryin Ott and Shayla Sellers to All-League honors.
In 2023-24, the Mastodons advanced to the Horizon League semifinal for the second year in a row and earned a berth to the Women's National Invitational Tournament. The Mastodons picked up their first-ever WNIT victories en route to a Super 16 berth.
She returned to Fort Wayne after spending four seasons as a player at fellow Horizon League member Northern Kentucky. A Homestead High School graduate, Geist was a role player on her first two Norse teams before having her career cut short with injuries. At Homestead, Geist led the team to an IHSAA Class 4A state title as a senior. She made the state semifinals in each of her three years on varsity.
