Watson Promoted to Full-Time Field Hockey Coach

From Stuart Kaufman, Sports Information: KSC Athletic director John Ratliff has announced the promotion of head field hockey coach Amy Watson to full-time status. Starting her 20th season at Keene State, Watson has had unprecedented success coaching the Owls. During her tenure, KSC has captured seven Little East Conference championships (1998, 1999, 2004–08), earned six NCAA berths (1998, 2004–08), and claimed the 2003 ECAC New England title. Her overall record at the College is 250-128-11 (.657 pct.), including an impressive 90-12 (.882 pct) mark in LEC play.

Watson, from Hanover, N.H., has also produced 12 All-Americans, including Erin Dallas and Alyssa Rowell, who earned the honor this past season. “The biggest thing about coming aboard full time is being available to my current student athletes and being around to meet with recruits,” said Watson, a four-time LEC coach of the year. “The program has been successful. I’m looking forward to taking it to the next level.”
