Coach's Office

The team is on overload:  coach trying to squeeze as much into practice as possible, faculty trying to squeeze as much into classes as possible, friends wanting to do as much as possible….college is awesome!  One of the really important aspects of attending college is learning to independently manage time, stress, and expectations.  Members of the women’s basketball team are learning those lessons in a big way right now; what a great opportunity to develop, mature, and learn to make decisions.  Attending college is a privilege, “wearing the blue” is a privilege, being “overloaded” with opportunities is a privilege.  Enjoy!!

The Big Blue would like to extend special thanks to the support staff in athletics whose invaluable services allow the team to pursue their athletic passions.  The Athletic Training staff (Tisha Hess, Trevor Bates, and Noel Neptune) and student athletic trainers, the Sports Information Director (Julie Farr) and Assistant Director (Leah Thomas) as well as the SID student staff, the Equipment Manager (Sam Trusner) and student staff, Josh Manning, the Director of the Allan-McClure Fitness/Wellness Center and his student staff, and especially Karen Gagnon and Jill Johnson, and their student staffs who work tirelessly.
