Drexel has named Katie Jansson their new head coach. Jansson spent the past three seasons leading the program at Iona where she compiled a 43-45 record. While with the Gaels she coached the MAAC Player of the Year, the MAAC Pitcher of the Year and the MAAC Rookie of the Year during the 2021 season.
Jansson replaces Carl Taylor whose contract was not renewed after the 2021 season after claims of various player mistreatment from what has been described as a few “disgruntled” student-athletes. The investigation by Drexel Administration was never completed and inquiries by RTS where met with resistance as it is “a personnel matter and as such we will not be commenting any further.”
