"She was the worst coach I have ever had. She picked on players and tore them down to the point of no confidence. Started making ALL players swing at every pitch in practice (ball or strike) we didn’t even use a home plate. Justified this because some players would swing at bad pitches in games, ruined players who had great discipline at the plate since we practiced swinging at balls or else we got kicked out the cage, horrible coaching, played favorites and would keep in favorites even if they were making errors or throwing strikes down the middle for the other team to bomb, won’t take out pitcher until it’s too late. Terrible person, very rude never supportive or uplifting, has a power trip just wants to be in charge and tell people what to do, made my teammates cry and ruined mental health, went over hours, the list goes on "

Poor Communication

"Emotionally and verbally abusive, racist and does not make Division 1 basketball choices in the game. Kicks her players and throws things at players. Gives underage athletes alcohol. Communicated and touched players inappropriately."

"Likes to curse out the players, making them regret joining the team. Does not motivate players, rather brings them down. Likes to pick out one or two at a time to belittle in front of the entire team to the point they all want to report her yet too scared for retaliation. SAD!"
