    Beth Alford-Sullivan is the kind of coach who changes the entire trajectory of a young athlete's life. She cares deeply about winning, but never at the expense of the person underneath the uniform, and that balance is what makes her rare. She pushes her athletes hard because she believes in what they're capable of, on the track and off it, and she takes just as much pride in who they become as in what they achieve. Give her your honest effort and she will match it every single time, showing up fully invested in your growth as a competitor and as a young adult. She is a great coach, but an even better person, and anyone lucky enough to be mentored by her comes out stronger for it.

    Old School MentalityPoor Communication

    Only cares about you as an athlete and not at all you as a person. don't expect to get any kind of support if you go to her for some. she is dishonest to recruits and only cares about making money and does not care how she gets it or how it may effect her athletes. often picks favorites and if you're not one of them don't expect to feel like part of the team. only good thing about her is she is a great business woman and very manipulative.

    She tends to try and be relatable which comes off as not genuine.
