"This coach has no control over her emotions. She is disrespectful to the players. Makes constant counter productive statements to her athletes. Has no ability to build unity on her team. Has no long term vision to unite the players around. Everything is just win now or else. Too much drama. Has no business coaching. Needs counseling . "
"I committed to play volleyball at Albright in January of my senior year of high school and was immediately met with poor communication skills from the head (Poss) and assistant (Jones) coache. During preseason many players were met with disrespect from the first day of practice, before we had even stepped on the court. My mental health as a student-athlete was effected drastically and had given me a negative outlook on Albright before classes had even begun. I dreaded going to practice or even driving to campus, and found myself crying when I had to take my exit off the highway almost every day. There were many moments of unprofessional and inappropriate comments from the head (Poss) coach during my short time in the program; my food choices in the dining hall at team meals (dessert), my personal relationships (lack of a boyfriend), and the absolute dismissal of my concerns for my own mental well-being. I had a private meeting with the head (Poss) and assistant (Jones) coach, where I brought up my concerns about how she was effecting my mental health and that I felt there was more I needed to do for myself. Her response was to simply get medicated. While she had no prior knowledge of mental health, medication history, etc. All she was able to give me was get medicated and work it out. She blew off every concern I had worked so hard to be able to voice to her.
Since leaving Albright’s volleyball program, I’ve stayed in touch with friends on the team (many who have since left the program as well). Not a single young woman has had a successful experience. She’s questioned players sexuality, discriminated against players religious beliefs and practices, ran players to the point of asthma attacks and throwing up, and so much more.
I feel for anyone that has had to endure playing volleyball at Albright under Coach Poss."
