Her duties and responsibilities will include assisting the current coaching staff with specific needs, culture and player development, travel and recruiting.

A program-record 17 Demon Deacons were named to the All-Atlantic Coast Conference Field Hockey Academic Team.

Her attention to detail as it pertains to student-athlete development, academically and athletically, will be a tremendous asset to our current hockey and support staff."
