Former Rock player Jenny Dumas was interim head coach in 2002

SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. -- Jenny Dumas, who coached the team on an interim basis last fall, was named Wednesday as head coach of the Slippery Rock University women's field hockey team.

Dumas, a former three-year starter as goalie for The Rock's field hockey team, led SRU to a 5-13 record in her first season as head coach. That win total represented an improvement of two over the previous fall's mark and was the highest since 1998 when The Rock won eight games.

Dumas is a native of Glen Mills and a graduate of Garnet Valley High School. In addition to serving as The Rock's field hockey goalie, she was SRU s starting softball catcher for three seasons.

She received her bachelor's degree in Social Work in the summer of 2002 and is currently enrolled in SRU's master's degree program as a secondary school counseling major.
