"Great school and has potential to be a great program, but the way Kayla coaches and treats players, drives players away from the program. She gets into team drama and judges you more on personality rather than actual field hockey skills. The players are in a constant state of stress which cultivates a toxic team environment. So many players transfer for good reason; the numbers never lie. Many complaints get swept under the rug by the athletic department, and nothing will ever change. She consistently gets great talent, but can’t seem to put together a good season. If you don’t care too much about field hockey, you’ll have a good time at the school, otherwise, I would never recommend this program."

"Cory picked up and ran with a job that honestly had huge shoes to fill and a reputation to uphold. As a coach, he absolutely has the experience and knowledge to make a good swimmer GREAT! He wears a lot of hats on the team as he is one of the most approachable people on the IU staff. My only complaint about Cory is that he willingly puts on straight-cut jeans at 5 AM to coach swimming. But I guess this is also a testimony to his commitment to something he cares about. Overall, Cory was a great coach and overall fun person to be around. P.S. if you are a distance swimmer- he'll make you work, but he also knows how to deal with distance group shenanigans, so don't be shy :) "

Direct Honest Cares About Academics Develops Team Beyond The Field Fitness Is Important

"Coach Stanton is one of the best in the game. If you didn’t like her, it probably has more to do with YOU & Your work ethic than anything she did or said. She will do anything & everything to help you succeed on & off the field. Grades are massively important, but being a better person when you leave her program is the most important thing to her. I’m extremely grateful for Stanton & her staff, I’m not sure I’d have a degree or the coaching career I have without them. She’s one of those coaches who will push you past your limits to help you realize your talent. Once you’ve made it through her program, you realize you really can achieve anything you set your heart to. I frequently tell stories to my current athletes about her, nothing but respect for Coach.

"Habitual liar. Another coach that claims to care but only ever took care of her favorite players. Go to her church, baby sit her kids and you are a starter. Claimed publicly to talk and get feedback from parents ? Never heard from her in 2 years. Her record doesn’t back up her ego. "

"Ray Looze cares more about you as an asset instead of a person. He is a great salesman and makes you feel like a top priority as a recruit but when you are on the team you either perform or you are ignored and not cared about. He believes in old school type of training and the workouts are intense. There is a high turnover rate of coaches."
