“It’s not a job, it’s a lifestyle:” head coach leads App State women’s soccer in 12th season

App State women’s soccer had a difficult 6-11-1 season in 2020, which culminated in an early Sun Belt Tournament exit. This year, they plan to bounce back with head coach Sarah Strickland leading the program.

Strickland started her tenure at App State in 2010 when she was assigned as the head coach of the women’s soccer program. A decade later, she enters her 12th year in the program as she plans to take it toward a new direction.

“She’s built an awesome culture here and has empowered us to help coach the team and improve things here,” assistant coach Mitch Williams said.
