Women's Crew/Rowing Head Coach / Rowing

Goes above and beyond to help us reach our goals. I’ve never had a coach who cared so much about their athletes.

Matt’s coaching goes beyond what we do on the erg and on the water. He values communication, nutrition, sleep, academics, personal life, etc. Many coaches I’ve had in the past didn’t preach or even acknowledge the importance of taking care of these things like he does. There are a lot of stressors in the life of a college athlete, and he knows how to read us. Matt is not only an incredible coach, but also, a mentor.

He is a smart man, but not relatable at all. His door is physically always open, but if you're not in his top 8, he really doesn't seem to care at all. I was never able to have a personal relationship with him. Injured athletes are completely isolated from the team, they're not even allowed to practice with the team.

He is a tough coach and can push people past limits, but he doesn't care about the person there is no relationship. He has expressed focus on the girls that are already good and to forget about the ones who haven't peaked yet. For most girls he is hard to talk to because he can manipulate a situation or pretend that there isn't a problem.

Matt is a very technical coach who emphasizes the process over the outcome. His office door is always open for us to stop in and ask questions or just to chat. Overall I've had a very positive experience with Michigan State rowing!
