About Me
I am entering my 21st season as head softball coach at West Chester University where I have authored six consecutive 40-win campaigns and tutored 10 major award-winning athletes. I coached the team to four Atlantic Region crowns with an accompanying trip to the DII NCAA Tournament and took the Atlantic Region Coaching Staff of the Year award each time (2014, 2018, 2019, 2021). I have been at the helm of both PSAC Championship clubs (2017, 2021) and led the team to six consecutive PSAC East titles (2014-2019) where I was named Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Eastern Division Coach of the Year six times (2008, 2010, 2016, 2018, 2019, 2023).
