COACHING BIO
In 2016, she led the Falcons to their first-ever NCAA Division III National Championship, with a perfect 22-0 record against Division III competition. The Falcons' national title win may also go down as one of the greatest finals in Division III history as Messiah defeated Tufts University in a penalty shootout (1-0, 2-1 PS).
