Hockey Bio: Jennifer has played hockey since sixth grade. In high school she was the Co-Captain and received the “All New York State” two years in a row. Also while in high school she traveled abroad to play on the Euro Tour Team and represented her region in the Empire State Games. During College she coached a high school team in Dublin, OH (one year as assistant, and one year as head coach), and she now coaches both field hockey and lacrosse at Loyola Academy. She played on two club teams during undergrad (Women’s & Co-Ed) and throughout her graduate years she officiated middle and high school matches. Jennifer brings a wealth of experience and talent to CFHC.

CFHC Experience: I joined the Chicago club team at the beginning of this spring.  The people I have thus far are not only amazing field hockey players, but also they are quality, caring individuals.  I am immensely enjoying my membership on this team.  When I left Ohio a year ago, I did not exactly know how I would fit hockey into my schedule and life.  It is wonderful to be back on the field and playing, and I am so happy that the Chicago Club Team has become so established!
