Coed Crew/Rowing Head Coach / Rowing

Nice person but shouldn’t be a head coach at a D1 level

Your experience depends on if she likes you. For me, I was in the middle. She is a bit manipulative and way too involved in athlete's personal lives. Unhealthy team culture. Tells the 1V girls to not stretch with the 2V girls even though we are teammates. Fast boats weren't a priority (our 1V was slower than our 2V).

Her negative reputation is largely fostered by people who were unprepared for the commitment and occasional impersonability of D1 rowing. Is she the best coach? No. But her training plans make sense, she rarely goes over hours, and she truly wants the team to succeed. Come misunderstandings, she is more than willing to meet w/ you and explain.

Extremely inconsistent. Experiences were on a case by case basis. Could sometimes be motivational/provide support, but for the most part was typically cold and difficult to contact/approach.

Lets factors outside of rowing interfere with boat placements; does not give equal opportunity to everyone; does not create an environment fit for open and honest discussion; passive-aggressive toward those who challenge her; not inclusive of all rowers (only focus is top boat, specifically the V8); not enough clarity with instruction and feedback; lack of positive constructive criticism; lack of concern with injuries; fear of repercussion if something is done and/or said that displeases her
