Fifteen Academic All-Americans
The college's first and second female 1000 point scorers

She most recently was the Athletic Director at VCA, overseeing all varsity sports programs as well as restarting the softball program where she served as head coach the first season and winning the league post-season tournament. Her coaching career includes successful stints as head coach in both soccer (38-2 including 3 undefeated seasons), and basketball (one season, setting the school record at 20-2) at the Northwest Christian School, serving as the freshman head basketball coach (11-2) and varsity assistant at Pope John High School (16-9, state quarter final finish), and working as a coach with three AAU programs; Garden State, DF Elite and Crossroads.
