Liz Galloway McQuitter (born August 15, 1955) has held positions as head coach and assistant coach women's basketball at the collegiate level. In April, 2015, she ended her career in athletics retiring as head coach of the Rockdale High School in Rockdale, Texas. McQuitter served as head coach at Mundelein College (1984–1986), Lamar (1990–1994), and Northern Illinois (1994–1998). McQuitter took over the head coaching position at Lamar after the resignation of Al Barbre following an NCAA investigation which ended with two years probation and other penalties for the team. In spite of the cloudy start, McQuitter's team tied for first-place finish in the Sun Belt regular season. The Lady Cardinals were not eligible for post-season play that year. McQuitter left Lamar after four seasons to become head coach for the Northern Illinois Huskies women's basketball team. Her first season at Northern Illinois was also successful as the team qualified for the 1995 NCAA Women's Division I Basketball Tournament. Coach McQuitter served as assistant coach at Northwestern, Dartmouth, DePaul, and Texas A&M.
