TRENDING NOW: NCAA TRANSFER TRACKER / COLLEGE COACHING TRACKER
Holy Cross head coach Jen Lapicki is stepping down from her role, the school announced on Wednesday evening.
Lapicki’s resignation is effective August 24th and comes as she has decided to “pursue other professional opportunities,” according to the school’s press release.
The Crusaders’ head coach for the last five seasons, Lapicki shepherded the program to a 49-127 overall record during her tenure. The squad assembled a 22-52 showing in Patriot League play over the five seasons and played in the conference tournament in 2017.
“I am thankful to Jen for all her contributions to Holy Cross softball and to our entire department during her time on The Hill,” Holy Cross athletic director Marcus Blossom said in a statement. “She has given her all in supporting and developing our student-athletes. She has been an incredible teammate to coaches and staff throughout the department, and I wish her the best on her next chapter.”
Prior to taking the helm at Holy Cross, Lapicki spent a year in the travel ball ranks and was an assistant coach at Princeton and Iona. A Florida State alumnus, Lapicki earned all-ACC second team and all-tournament team honors as a senior in 2011. She was an SEC All-Freshman honoree after beginning her playing career at Tennessee in 2008. In April of 2019, Lapicki signed a contract extension to remain at Holy Cross through the 2022 season.
