Anna through the hiring process was her attention to detail, her empathy toward others, and her inquisitive nature as to what it is going to take to build this team the right way moving forward,” said Bailey-Greene. “She is driven to learn, grow, and be the best coach she can be for those around her, all qualities we look for in our athletes as well. Her focus on the holistic approach to athlete development will fit in perfectly at the University of Toledo. I cannot wait for her to arrive in March and hit the ground running!"
