"Suzanne is a major contributor to negative mental health issues on the team. She not only looks away from major drug issues but seems to favor players who take illicit and hard-core drugs. Playing time is directly correlated to how much the girls parents have donated to the program. I haven't even gotten to her lack of lacrosse IQ nor her inability to switch strategies mid-game. She's not qualified to run a high school program let alone a D1 program. Stay away from this program. "

"Alex had/has no business coaching softball. You can be a decent player and a horrible coach and she is the perfect example of that. She took accomplishments of her players that had zero to do with her and acted as though it was all her. No coach at the college level should be preaching "squish the bug" and then claim they know everything there is to know about hitting. I feel like our entire team got worse by having her for barley a single season."

However, when she does show disappointment in our performances it’s only because she believes in us so much and knows when we didn’t run to our full potential. "

"No courtesy to his players. Not respectful to his own players’ problems and undermines them in order to force them to play. Puts down players for different methods of success and over treats whoever follows his method even though others succeed in their own way. Constantly treats his players horribly. "

"Will put down his own team in the name to respect the other team. Will be biased on his own players by heavily befitting the star player and treating the rest with no concern. Has a clear lack of class when it comes to sharing information to their players at the right time. No coaching during practice and hardly any help in matches. "

"Dwayne's style is very much old school. He tends to recruit big, strong, and fast players. He values athleticism over vision, skill, or IQ. He oftentimes exhibits power-trips that serve to discredit his coaching abilities. I remember him telling his assistants to "sit down, you're not the head coach." A lot of politics on this team. "

"A very experienced college coach that's been around the game a long time. Will answer most questions and is understanding of an athlete's circumstances/conflicts. Unfortunately he is getting older. It is apparent he is losing energy, intensity, and becoming a little forgetful. The respect for him may be lower than it should be for a D1 coach. "
