Amy Kolowsky will enter her second season as a member of head coach Sarah Strickland’s coaching staff for the Mountaineer women’s soccer program.
Last season under Kolowsky, the Mountaineers shut out six opponents and limited opposing teams to one goal or less in 15 of 20 matches. Megan Roberson was Kolowsky’s main goalkeeper last season, and she logged 1,600 minutes, had 71 saves and four shutouts. Roberson was named 2015 Sun Belt Student-Athlete of the Week for her performances against High Point and Marshall, having 11 saves in the win against High Point and a tie against Marshall. She allowed just three goals in seven matches with a 0.52 goals against average. Also under Kolowsky was Sam Steyl, who worked behind Roberson. Steyl played in six games and had seven saves, contributing to two shutouts.
Kolowsky spent the previous five seasons as a goalkeeper in the women’s soccer program under Strickland. She currently is seventh all-time for single-season saves (95) and sixth all-time for career saves (131) in program history.
Kolowsky brings club coaching experience, specifically with goalkeepers at the High Country Soccer Association (HCSA) and currently holds a USSF Class E Coaching license.
