Elisabeth Blackwell
- Title:
- Volunteer Assistant Coach
Elisabeth Blackwell joined the Oregon coaching staff on January 21, 2020 as a volunteer assistant coach after spending the 2019 season as an assistant coach at Fresno State.
"We are thrilled to have Elisabeth join our staff and the Duck lacrosse family," said Gamble Hoffmann. "Her experience and knowledge of the game will bring a new edge to our defensive unit."
Blackwell worked primarily with the defenders and goalkeepers at Fresno State, where she helped the Bulldogs' goalies recorded a program-record 192 saves, while goalie Laurel Maunder set a school single-season record with 181 saves. The Bulldogs also had a pair of defenders earn All-MPSF honors under Blackwell's tutelage.
Prior to her stint at Fresno State, Blackwell spent two years as an assistant coach at Gardner-Webb, where she helped senior Amanda Steinmuller to a 39-goal year and freshman Talen Francis to a program freshman record for scoring with 44 points. She spent one year as a volunteer assistant coach at Louisville, helping lead the Cardinals to the 2016 NCAA Tournament.
Blackwell played her sophomore through senior seasons at Stetson, where she started 43 games throughout her career and was named a co-captain in 2015 as a senior. She also spent her freshman year at LIU-Brooklyn, where she started all 16 games in 2011. Blackwell graduated from Stetson in 2015 with a degree in biology.
