There are certain people that come into your life and just seamlessly fit right in... We both started our coaching careers at separate times, in separate states and at separate points in our lives but yet both took on our roles for common reasons: wanting to find a way to give back to a sport that gave us both so much (shout out to Lynn and Lindsey!). Little did we know that lacrosse would keep giving and help us find the loves of our lives. Our coaching paths lead us to the fateful day... Our paths first crossed on June 15, 2017, when Liz first stepped foot on campus at Allegheny College to interview for the Assistant Women's Lacrosse Coach position where Ashley was serving as the Head Coach. Little did we know, what started as professional chemistry would turn into forever love. That invisible string (yes, T Swift reference) continued to pull us together and after a year of building upon our tight bond and friendship, it was hard to deny the spark between us. Our initial bond over a love for lacrosse expanded into a mutual love of many hobbies, travels, and adventures. On January 8th, 2021, Ashley asked Liz to marry her at the top of the Pittsburgh Incline overlooking the city nearest to both of our hearts and overlooking Heinz Field (yes, we both bleed black and gold). On that day, Liz said "yes" and our beautiful story had yet another chapter opened. Four years later from that June 2017 interview, we are now happily co-parenting puppy Zola and kitties Hemingway and Lilly where we are residing in Staunton, VA. We've both accepted new positions in higher education with Ashley continuing her passion in coaching at Bridgewater College and Liz starting a new career path in Alumni Engagement at James Madison University. More than ever, we look forward to celebrating with YOU in Pittsburgh, our favorite city and the place that initially drew us together!
