    Coach honestly made my experience at QU unpleasant. She emotionally manipulated players and tears the team apart from the inside out. She controls EVERY aspect of players lives outside of rugby. She told players who had serious injuries/surgery that they were faking it and lazy. If you accept and offer to play here and aren’t her favorite, be ready for emotional warfare.

    She wants the best for her athletes and teaches great life lessons that apply off the field just as much as they do on the field. She's definitely intense but she's a winner and she'll teach you to be one too.

    This year I went through a lot and my coach was there for me more than anyone else. Even my teammates. I honestly don't know what I would've done if I didn't have this one talk with my coaches. She can sometimes be hard to understand, but she truly means well.

    My coach is my mentor. I look to her for rugby and life related questions. I have grown so much as a player with her guidance.

    She does some unexplained things but overall she is a very good coach who knows how to discipline players and maintain a winning system.

    Motivational and knowledgeable. Be prepared to work. She values work ethic, accountability and integrity. Issues outside of rugby are important to her too. Overall she is my ideal type of coach.

    When you're Coach's favorite - it's easy to be on the team. If you're not her favorite - it's not the best time. I've heard her ask her players to value practice over academics. Injuries seem to be fictional in her eyes. \ If she's in a good mood - practice is focused on strategy and learning - if she's in a bad mood, we sprint. \ She fights for us and tries to give us what we deserve from admin, but tears the team apart internally by picking favorites and gossiping.

    Coach Carlson is a champion for women in athletics and will stop at nothing to fight for her athletes on and off the field. She challenges players to grow athletically and personally during their four years as her athletes. I've seen many players, myself included, be positively impacted by her in their four years at QU. She is intense and demands a lot of her players but it is because she wants the best for them and sees the potential that they have.
