    Coach's Note

    The 2025 season was nothing short of extraordinary for CNU Field Hockey! We set new records, earned national recognition, and traveled over 5,000 miles to compete at the highest level—an incredible effort that reflects the commitment of our Captains to our program. Next season, we’ll likely travel even farther, and your support makes every mile, game, and practice possible.

    On the field, our team was historic. We held the No. 1 spot in the NFHCA National Coaches Poll for seven straight weeks—the first time in program history to finish the regular season ranked at the top. Our defense was rock-solid, our offense explosive, and our athletes led the country in key statistical categories, including goals-against average, shutouts per game, and save percentage.

    We were thrilled to celebrate four All-American selections, a program milestone, along with eight All-Region honorees, including six first-team selections. These accomplishments reflect the talent, work ethic, and leadership our student-athletes bring every day.

    Beyond the wins, what makes me proudest is the positive culture we’ve built as a team—a culture rooted in support, respect, and accountability. Our athletes grow not just as players, but as leaders, teammates, and young women, creating friendships, memories, and habits that will extend well beyond their playing years.

    To continue giving our student-athletes the best experience possible, we rely on your support. Gifts to our annual fundraising campaign help us:
    • Provide updated equipment for training and competition
    • Support travel for games and national tournaments
    • Cover essential operational costs like uniforms, coaching, and nutrition
    Every gift, no matter the size, has a meaningful impact. With your support, we can continue building CNU Field Hockey into the best place in Division III for athletes to compete, grow, and thrive.

    Thank you for being part of our journey. I hope to see you at Jennings Family Stadium this fall!

    Go Captains!
