"Catawba offers great scholarships but if your passion is lacrosse your chances of playing are not good unless you’re one of her favorites. If you’re a fav, you’ll play whether you’re good or bad. If you’re not, you won’t play at all. She doesn’t sub when she’s up by a lot and she doesn’t sub when she’s down by a lot. 4 straight years of a terrible defense and her bulk of recruitment is attack. Hard to tell whether she knows the game or not because her decisions aren’t understandable. Terrible coaching skills."

"Coach Ferguson is the most worst coach I have ever played for. I have had my fair share of tough coaches, but she mentally tears down the players, insults them, plays favorites, plays mind games, and has no idea what she is doing coaching wise. Do not recommend whatsoever."

"Our coach is definitely the mother figure we need when we are not around our parents. She treats us like our own and would do anything for us. She is very lenient on rules and by the end of the season tends to forget she even put them in place. Her knowledge of our sport is very old school and some of us think thats what hurts us in our skills. "
