CSR 400 Katie Schumacher-Cawley

She is the head women's volleyball coach at Penn State University, in her fifth season in that position. She is a national champion as a player (1999) and then two years ago became the first female head coach to lead a team to an NCAA Division I Women's Volleyball title. That same season she announced publicly a breast cancer diagnosis. A two-time All-American at Penn State, she took over the head coaching reigns after spending four seasons as an assistant. Before returning to Penn State as an assistant coach in 2018, she spent eight seasons as the head coach at UIC and one season at Penn. She has been inducted into multiple halls of fame.  And in high school she led her team to state and national titles in volleyball.
