"The only players I’ve watched Ronda try and connect with are ones she wants to manipulate. Calling freshman to “get them” on the side of jv players is insane. Horrible athletic administration at DU"
"Spending 5 years at a school where your athletic director maybe came to 2 games is comical. We all watched Amber recruit loser kids and bring them in and sadly thats who Ronda feels for the most because of her son. Soft minded, entitled kids that aren’t good at softball. I didn’t play enough. Ok, my daddy will write something in. Pathetic and should be no part of d2 sports. "
"Has been a bully for years and Davenport lets her get away with it. Treats female athletes like little girls, not adults. Theres a clear difference in the operations between male and female sports at DU. This is evident in all areas of the athletic department. It never fails how she tries to push her son being single on female athletes. How many times can you she do this? It’s weird and wrong. "
"In competitive athletics if you have less talent you are placed on the jv team. Incredibly small thinking by anyone that thinks Ronda didn’t have a hand in placing the JV players on JV. Watching this all unfold, that has been the most laughable thing. Yes, she really likes you….as behind closed doors she’s bashing your personality and playing abilities. The hero isn’t such a hero if you actually pay attention. Using you to get what she wants is her biggest flex. "
"Cool? Do you mean COLD HEARTED. Classic Ronda wanting credit and appreciation for doing nothing. She did the same thing to the men’s golf coach who was a woman. She’s not a fan of hard work, teamwork or anyone that shares a different opinion. Low self esteem in a leadership position is a bad recipe. Ego driven against any woman that stands up to her. Most likely will need to hire a male in the position or a friend or both. Sad. "
"Goes out of her way to cancel games and not play. Doesn’t work on the field at all, lazy and is “cold” all the time. DU is crazy for letting this person coach any team as she is a walking nightmare. "
"When your son transfers to three high schools because he can’t play it’s telling what type of athletic administrator you will be. EVIDENT JV players knew this and took advantage of you. That is the exact opposite of cool. "
"You cater to players that treat softball like a hobby. That have no love for the game and put no extra work in. The same players you didn’t win any games with in JV. You shouldn’t be a D2 athletic director. Rec ball is your true calling! You’ve made fun of varsity players you’re coaching now - you’re shameful! "
"When only jv players that don’t take the game seriously, don’t work hard, party, take pictures of teammates partying, lie, start drama because they can’t throw or catch a ball like you…. You might be a problem in an athletic leadership position. Having personal relationships and calling kids like this all the time is strange behavior for an athletic administrator. If you had your way all these kids would be on Varsity and they would be 2-28 and the last place team in the conference.

"I think she came to 2 of our games when Amber was abusing us. I think she liked seeing the downfall of the program as she allowed the recruiting to sink then added jv. DU is so messed up now. "
"Completely divided the jv and varsity teams because she wanted extra money. So happy my kid transferred from this toxic place. She went out of her way to make the previous staff look bad. I’m sure she’s getting extra money now coaching the team. It’s coaching itself if you’re watching. The team is completely rebuilt and are pretty good. Disgusting anyone would say she is changing a culture or rebuilt the team. She likes toxic players, that aren’t good teammates and don’t work hard. The exact opposite of what it appears this team is built on. Still happy my kid transferred but it’s a pretty good little team. "
"Ronda defames the character of everyone at Davenport University. She constantly talks bad about players and coaches. Open your ears. This is normal behavior at Davenport University. I worked here for 6 years and Ronda is a hot head. She doesn’t think before she speaks. She’s not a good person. "
"Do you think an assistant AD and softball coach should be teaching softball players known to have bad grades. I don’t think she should be allowed to teach student athletes in her position. That’s wrong. "
"Ronda coached JV and lost every game. Now she took over a team she fought hard to NOT be put together. She’s toxic and has ran her mouth about almost every player, coach in the program. Tries to buy the respect of people. Bagels with the bitches didn’t earn my respect that’s why I transferred. "
"As a player Ronda has been against creating a good team culture. She sides with non coachable, lazy student athletes that didn’t work hard. How is that building a good team culture? It’s all wrong "
"Allows female student athletes and coaches to be mistreated. She should have the title SWA removed. I thought she was “Coach of the year” she’s a a joke of a coach. Stick with 10U"
"You picked jv players that didn’t work hard and were selfish, probably much like your own son and fought to have them on a team over players that did the right things and worked hard. Now you’re coaching the players you didn’t even want. Playing them pretty much exactly like the last staff. You’re embarrassing and making the team lazy. Just like you. "
