"She has a lack of respect for her players & could not manage a group of college girls. Her training staff under her are better at coaching than she is. She would negatively speak about players in front of others. She would tell you to be honest with her and speak freely then reprimand you for asking for help or advice. "

"Coach Walker is an amazing coach. She is intense and doesn't sugarcoat bad performance, but at the Division 1 level, that is exactly what is expected of a head coach. I have been under her coaching for four years and have seen insane improvement. As long as you listen to her cues and do your best to apply them, you will see growth. She is also very passionate about the sport and the team; she cares about her athletes and has gone out of her way to ensure that my experience at Towson is good, even when I was going through a hard time. She does not tolerate poor representation of our team or poor treatment of our team and will speak out for us whenever necessary. I have a lot of respect for her, and she is my biggest role model. Team culture is also really important to her, and she does not hesitate to remove someone who hinders it or is a liability to the team if no other solution is viable. In my four years with her, I have seen this team prosper, and I can say that my teammates are my best friends. The team is now closer than ever, and Coach Walker most definitely influenced that in how she runs the team. Coach Walker does a wonderful job at separating practice times to ensure that all her athletes get her utmost attention. I would like to add in here that I have seen another review on here that suggested otherwise; however, as someone who has thrived under her leadership, I can say very confidently that Coach Walker respects her athletes no matter who they are or what they look like. Anyone who has had a problem on this team or lost their spot on the team did so due to their own personal choices and actions unbecoming of a Division 1 Towson athlete. "

His great sense of humor keeps things light, and he's incredibly understanding, which makes him a fantastic coach. He plays a major role in the Towson women's soccer organization. He's easily one of the best coaches I've ever had the pleasure of playing for!"

I watched their game and hung out with them after that. I wish I was able to spend more time with the coach, we did a rushed campus tour and only sat to have a quick coffee. I based most of me decision off of the girls experiences. "

"Matt is definitely a passionate caring coach that cares a lot about the game. He cares a lot about the teams success overall, but does not care much about the individual player. He's also a little rude and likes to make fun the players that don't play and have snarky comments towards them. Sometimes its a joke, but when you are working that hard at practice its not what you want to hear. Really only cares about the players in the starting 11. Its unfortunate because otherwise I would say that he is great. He runs all of the drills and practices and is very knowledgeable. "

"I wish I could give Kathy zero stars for caring and honest. She was never honest from the day I met her. She lied straight through her teeth in front of my parents and I and will probably lie to you and your family too. She likes to play this "caring mother" act and tell all parents and athletes that she will be there for us as a second mom since our own mothers can't be, which is more than FALSE so don't fall for this crap. I truly think she believes her own lies to make her feel better about herself. She does not care about you as a person so do not try to seek that out of her and she does not want whats best for you as a player and as a PERSON. SHE HAS NO FEELINGS. Also, she has her favorites, which will be extremely obvious, but even they don't like her. No one likes her. She does not coach. She sits back in her lululemon tennis outfits and lets the other coaches clean up after her and do EVERYTHING for her. I wish I had a better experience because she did ruin soccer for me because made me want to quit numerous times. I even had to start seeing a therapist because she was just so awful as a person. She will probably fat shame you right to your face, multiple times too, so prepare yourself for that. In terms of soccer, if you are not in the starting 11, good luck seeing the field. You will feel blessed if you play even 10 minutes in a game because she does not sub anyone in, especially freshman. The only thing I got out of playing for Kathy was my teammates. We bond over her disgusting remarks and unjustifiable actions but it made us so close!"

Poor Communication Accessible Motivational Old School Mentality Believes In You

"The best way to describe the culture she has created is just nothing. She pours no heart, soul, or passion into practice, games or the season. Doesn't really try hard to build relationships with the girls on the team. The team culture is fun because of the girls that are there and the way they hangout and come together off the field. None of that was facilitated by the coaching staff. There is little to none team bonding, there is heavy favoritism towards Maryland locals and internationals. If you come in as an okay player, don't expect to be developed or worked on. Strictly business over there, and she doesn't care about your feelings. Its unfortunate that she claims to be your second mother, but when you are actually struggling she never checked in or tried to help. I'm not here to bash, however I would just like to spread awareness of what really goes on. The love for the sport was drained out of me during the seasons when my worth was attached to coach appraisal and playing time. I felt like a just a number in their game and less of a actual player and person as the season went on. Communication was non-existent. Even while not playing, I believe the coach can still create a positive environment where you can enjoy your sport and feel supported. This is not the case here. However the rest of the Towson staff is amazing, and supportive. Athletic training, strength & conditioning, sports nutrition - very helpful!"

"Absolutely God awful. She singles people out for no reason whatsoever, and punishes the rest of the team if they remained friends with them. She would not play her best players out of spite for not bowing down to her. I am from Maryland and she was horrible towards me, so wouldn’t even say she is great to people from Maryland. She was obsessed with internationals and transfers so I will second that. She ruined my love for the sport, couldn’t even finish my time playing at Towson and the season before she came in I played nearly every second of every game. I had an extremely tough club coach so was used to yelling and tough standards, she degrades and verbally abuses you on a whole new level, and does so out of jealousy and spite, not in an effort to make you or the team better. She does not care about academics either, probably because she is not very educated herself. She will act like an Angel during the recruiting process but trust me will turn into a bitch the second you start playing for her. There numerous other schools in Maryland that I have heard great things about- avoid Towson at all costs while she is coach. "
