Coach Hill was definitely a tough Coach, but coached in that manner because she cares and believes in the best for her players. Played under Coach Hill for 4 years and took a lot of adjustment to get used to the intense college practices and coaching, but it 100% made me a better player and better/tougher person. Yes, she will make you run and yes, she will have a hard conversation with you if it is warranted, but that is what makes her a great coach. In the moment, I didn’t enjoy some of the conditioning and hard practices and boot camps, but looking back it was those moments with Coach Hill where I really gained my confidence and grit. She really does care about her players, and strives to win. It’s a tough job especially with a big roster of women who may not get to play, and there may be some criticism from them, but in all she really does care about the program and it feels like a family. I was so grateful for the experience I had and am grateful for all the bonding Coach Hill set up for the team outside of the games and practices. She’s a tough coach who knows how to test her players for greatness. She puts in a lot of hours to her job and has been allowing the team to continuously do better performance wise for the past 6+ years. It’s a hard battle, and she is a great leader through the great and bad times a team may face. Thankful for having Coach Hill as my coach for my last years of my softball career, and thankful for all the lessons she taught me throughout that I continue to look back on and take with me throughout my professional career now.
