“Kate is a bright spot on our team—a fierce person with a strong personality and a kind heart. I have watched Kate grow so much in her time with our program and I am so proud of her. Everything from hitting a simple down ball, to speaking honestly with our team about tough situations, has been an amazing development to see. Her ability to set an example of how to be an successful student-athlete and immerse herself in the full college experiences has been so important for our team. I’ve enjoyed so many big and small moments with Kate throughout the years and I will miss her so much!” Head Coach Ashley Coyle
