    Dishonest and Manipulative

    Excellent recruiter and coaching background. But he's dishonest and manipulative. Most of the team hates him. We just had one of the best seasons in program history last year, and 25% of the team quit afterwards. Typically graduate 3-4 seniors each year, and those freshmen classes started out at 9-10. He'll never win the big game because players don't play hard for him.

    Future recruits do your homework on head coach and retention in the program. There has been over 7 girls in the last year that have left the program not including his seniors. Of his last year 2023/2024 recruiting class only 3 of 7 are still there.

    Values Winning over Athletes Health and Safety ---- Coaches with Fear instead of Postive Motivation

    Date: April 24, 2024

    Would Recommend

    This coach uses fear tactics in practice, yelling, and rude comments causing players to have panic attacks frequently. Players play under extreme stress and mental breakdowns. He never shows it on game days but behind the scenes. I was recruited and left after his constant put-downs of players. Players feared retribution of playtime, so they remained quiet. The assistant coaches are great but leave frequently due to his practices. His season records are minimal because players do not play well under the intense stress and lack of team bonding. By the time the season ended, many players had begun to leave or left mid-season. Many players had injuries, as we would have weight training and then immediately have an intense practice not giving our muscles time to recover. Players were encouraged not to complain and continue playing against the trainer's recommendations, leaving some in tears of pain while trying to continue. The teammates were great and tried to support each other, but at times it was unbearable. Recruits do your homework!
