While Kati Nearhouse was once a good athlete, she does not make a good coach. She is scatterbrained, manipulative, and prioritizes fitness above all else-- including stick skills. She caters to favorites but will fat-shame others. She has said multiple times that she does not care about your education and tells you that field hockey comes before all else. This is a crazy take because she has a consistent losing record. She spent three years at McDaniel and had nothing to show for it. She's certainly passionate about coaching, but lacks the understanding that you have to recruit players to maintain and grow a program. In her third year of coaching, Kati was leading a Division III team in the Centennial Conference with a roster of about 13.

Kati plays complete favorites and has treated the players she did not recruit vs. did very differently. She acts as though she wants to win games yet can’t surpass 3 wins as she only plays her favorites and those with “potential.” She comes from D1 programs, yet cannot recruit or retain players. Fat-shamed players on the team and has bent the rules for her favorites.

She truly cares about the players, but she is not meant to be a head coach. While I was on the team, it felt like there were three assistant coaches. Jenn never wanted to step up and would let other coaches take the lead for her. She was incredibly passive-aggressive, and you would truly only get good, real feedback if you asked her for a private 1-on-1 outside of our already 3-hour practices every day. Her coaching methods were interesting at best. She would do drills that we all did when we were 8 years old, expecting to see some change in our style of play. Practices were hardly ever effective, yet she would wonder why we would lose. We very often had the same practice three times a week with very few changes. She forced us to go through trainings, which didn't apply to anything that was happening on our team ever. She wasn't a good coach and truly led so many of us to hate the sport. She never communicated her true wants if you weren't a favorite, it was incredibly obvious who was vs. who wasn't.

Despite a number of health challenges in my career at McDaniel, Coach Renner has always put my best interests first and has tried to give me support when he can. He has always made adjustments to cultivate my success and health, and for that I am forever grateful. Workouts are great and a positive team first atmosphere is cultivated while chasing individual success.
