Coaching News: UMass hired Staci Ramsey

A long overdue posting.

Staci Ramsey

UMass hired former Alabama All-American Staci Ramsey as an assistant coach. Ramsey won three SEC titles and played in three WCWS for the Crimson Tide. She was a mainstay at the hot corner for Alabama and she was a feared hitter in the lineup. In 2006, Ramsey hit .304 with 11 HR and 57 RBI and was named an All-American. She is going to work primarily with the UMass offense and infield, which should be much improved in 2014.

Ramsey joins Kristi Stefanoni and Danielle Henderson on the UMass staff.

Coaching news

Karla Powell

George Washington hired former Wisconsin standout Karla Powell as its volunteer assistant coach. With Powell and Stephanie Call as assistant coaches, Colonial hitters will learn a lot from these two powerful sluggers.

Jim McGowan

Fordham hired legendary Long Island high school coach Jim McGowan as its pitching coach. McGowan was head coach at Bay Shore HS from 1983-2011 and recorded a record of 661-89. McGowan and his players earned countless awards and he is sure to be a positive influence for Fordham's pitchers this year.

Recruiting news

A special highlight of the weekend is that the two most successful Northeast softball programs will face off for the first time since 2003.

Raising High on the Recruiting Trail

Stacey Schramm

When Stacey Schramm and Dan Sperl came to George Washington the program was coming off of one of the worst seasons in program history, which has made the program's subsequent turn around all the more impressive. One of the keys to the Colonials resurgence has been recruiting, as Sperl and Schramm have shown a fearless attitude in targeting and landing players from around the nation. George Washington aggressive recruiting helped lead to a 2012 Atlantic 10 Runner Up and could lead to a title in the near future. The latest big pickups came this fall when the Colonials landed Chloe Braun and Ashley Schnarrs.

Chloe Braun is a 2015 pitcher from the Gold Coast Hurricanes. Braun is a huge pickup for George Washington, as she was highly recruited by a number of top programs. Braun will see quality time right away for the Colonials and she will bolster a pitching staff that is already quite strong.

Ashley Schnarrs is a 2015 infielder from the Vienna Stars. Schnarrs is an athletic player that can play in either the infield or outfield for the Colonials. Schnarrs will be a strong right-handed bat in the middle of George Washington's order. Schnarrs is also a DC area recruit for the Colonials as they look to establish themselves as the best program in the beltway.

Braun and Schnarrs join Riley Tejcek in George Washington's 2015 recruiting class.

With an incredible freshmen class on campus now and another stellar class on the way next year, George Washington will be a fixture at the top of the conference for a long time to come.
