Amy Cohen just completed her 12th season as head coach of the West Chester University field hockey team. During her tenure, Cohen has led the Rams to three national championships with eight trips to the national semifinals, including most recently in 2022.

A 2002 graduate of Lafayette College with a bachelor’s degree in History, Cohen was a four-year starting goalkeeper for the Leopards (1998-2001). 

In this episode, Cohen discusses what has led to her success which derives from her motto, "Be comfortable being uncomfortable" and how that philosophy has guided her to be one of the most successful coaches in Division-II field hockey.

Cohen openly discusses her gay lifestyle and her open door policy through relationships with players and their families, recruiting and coaching with her assistants and the support from the university.
