THE COACHES JEN STAREK
2017 COACHES
HEAD COACH 11TH SEASON SPRINGFIELD ‘01
2017 PLAYERS
The all-time winningest softball coach at the University of New Haven, Jen Starek enters her 11th season as the head coach of the Chargers in 2017. Overall in her tenure, the Chargers have made six NCAA postseason appearances including the program’s first appearance in the Super Regionals in 2010. That same season, the Chargers set a school record with 42 wins and an .840 winning percentage. As the longest tenured coach in program history, Starek enters the 2017 season one win shy of hitting the 300 win plateau with a career record of 299-170-2 (.634). The Native of Holliston, Mass. is a two-time Northeast-10 Coach of the Year, most recently in 2014 when she led New Haven to the NE10 Southwest Division regular-season title for the first time since divisional play began in 2013.
2017 OUTLOOK
Over her career, Starek has coached four All-Americans including 2010 graduate Breanne Gleason who is a three-time All-America and the Daktronics East Region Pitcher and Player of the Year, the only player under Starek to earn that distinction. Additionally, 13 of Starek’s players have been named to All-Region teams, while 19 have earned All-Conference distinction, including Gleason who was the NE10 Pitcher and Player of the Year in 2010 as well as Pitcher of the Year in 2009 and Christina Gelardi who earned NE10 Player of the Year accolades in 2013.
2016 REVIEW
Additionally, 17 of Starek’s current or former players are scattered throughout the All-Time record books. Starek’s former players also account for the alltime leader in at-bats (Gleason), hits (Nicole Downs), runs (Gelardi), doubles (Gleason), home runs (Downs), runs batted in (Lindsey Couturier), stolen bases (Chelsea Harold), walks (Gelardi), pitching appearances (Gleason), pitching wins (Gleason), innings pitched (Gleason) and strikeouts (Gleason).
HISTORY & RECORDS
As Starek hit the decade mark in 2016, she led the Chargers to the NE10 Conference Championship for the sixth time in seven years and closed out the campaign with a 23-15 overall record and a 12-11 mark in conference play. Five Chargers earned All-Conference honors for New Haven, highlighted by freshman Taylor Luzzi who along with Third Team All-Conference honors was also named the NE10 Rookie of the Year, the first under Starek. Joining her in earning league distinction was Nicole King, Julie Devlin, Marissa Colby and Jen Palase who also garnered All-Region honors from the D2CCA and the NFCA. The All-Conference honors for Palase and King in 2016 marked the second straight year the pair scored the accolades as each were named to the AllConference Second Team in 2015 as well. That year, which included King becoming the fifth player with 400 or more strikeouts, the pair helped lead New Haven to a 16-16-12 record.
THE UNIVERSITY
The 2014 season marked Starek’s second Northeast-10 Coach of the Year honor as the Chargers won the NE10 Southwest Division regular-season title closing out the year with a 29-18 overall record. With an 18-8 conference slate, New Haven hosted the conference championship, but fell to eventual champion Southern New Hampshire before earning the fourth seed in the NCAA East Region Championship and hosting the regional on campus. In 2013, Starek produced the Chargers’ seventh-straight winning season – a stretch that began when she took over the program in 2007. The team finished

38-15 and reached both the NE10 and NCAA Regional championship games. New Haven earned its first NFCA national ranking (No. 24) since landing at No. 21 in the 2011 preseason poll. Starek also guided the program’s first-ever NFCA All-America First Team selection, Christina Gelardi, to Northeast-10 Conference Player of the Year laurels. Gelardi led the nation with a .649 on-base percentage, while pitcher Micah Stonesifer and first baseman Jess Spivey also collected All-Region accolades. The Chargers finished 29-19 in 2012 and earned the seventh seed in the Northeast-10 Championship, going on to knock off second Adelphi and advance to the championship weekend tournament. That season, Starek mentored Shannon Angehr to First Team All-NE-10 and Second Team NFCA All-East Region laurels in the outfield. In 2011, New Haven advanced to the Northeast-10 Championship as the fourth seed and was one of three teams left standing on the tournament’s final day of action. The Chargers also claimed the seventh seed in the NCAA East Region Championship, marking the club’s fourth-straight NCAA postseason trip. After concluding the season with a 34-19 overall record, Chelsea Harold and Gelardi both earned NFCA All-America honors and were two of the four Chargers to claim All-NE10 recognition. The 2010 campaign was a landmark season for the Chargers highlighted by earning the program’s first NE10 Regular Season Championship and the top seed in the NCAA Division II East Region Championship. Starek claimed NE10 Conference Coach of the Year honors for the first time as she guided the Blue and Gold to a program-record 42 wins and made the longest NCAA postseason run in program history, finishing the spring ranked No. 16 in the NFCA Division II Top 25 poll. After sweeping the regional, the Chargers advanced to their first ever Super Regional, falling to Molloy in the deciding game of a best-of-three series. The 2010 season also marked the end of arguably one of the best four-year careers in New Haven softball history. Breanne Gleason, Starek’s only former player currently inducted in the New Haven Athletics Alumni Hall of Fame, was a two-time All-America honoree and only the second player in Northeast-10 history to earn Pitcher and Player of the Year in the same season (2010). She was also the 20th NCAA Division II pitcher to record 1,000 career strikeouts and the 22nd to register 100 wins. Gleason was a four-time All-Region selection, a two-time First Team All-NE-10 honoree and recorded the most recent perfect game in New Haven history – a 3-0 win over Dowling on March 17, 2010. Starek took over the Chargers’ program in 2007 and led the team to a 26-19 record – an eight-win improvement from the previous campaign. She followed that up by guiding the Chargers to the NCAA East Regional Championship final in 2008 and 2009. Prior to her arrival at New Haven, Starek spent two years as head softball and field hockey coach at Simmons College in Boston. The Sharks’ 2006 softball team won the Colleges of the Fenway Tournament and scored an opening-round win in the Great Northeast Atlantic Conference (GNAC) Playoffs. The team posted a 19-19 record overall, including wins in seven of the team’s last nine games,

Coming off its sixth appearance in the Northeast-10 Conference Championship in the last seven years, the University of New Haven softball team is expected to once again contend for a berth in the postseason as it brings back a strong corps of returning players in 2017. The Chargers will also have some big shoes to fill following the graduation of multiple All-Conference players. CATCHER Returning at catcher is junior Marissa Colby who appeared in all 38 games for New Haven last season, garnering Third Team All-NE10 recognition following a season where she hit .322 and had a .415 on-base percentage. Joining the Chargers behind the plate is junior transfer Alycia Marsello who hit .286 in two seasons at Georgian Court, leading the Lions with a .306 average, three home runs and 24 RBI in 2016. Providing depth will be freshman Samantha Errera who was a two-time All-Conference performer at Cedar Creek High School. INFIELD New Haven returns all four starters in the infield, including a pair of All-Conference performers. Up the middle, seniors Julie Devlin and Gabby DeLeo make up the Chargers’ double play tandem. Devlin was named Northeast-10 Second Team All-Conference and NE10 Academic All-Conference, hitting .340 while leading the team with 10 doubles, smacking three homers and driving in 16. DeLeo is one of the surest-handed fielders in school history, entering 2017 with a career .983 fielding percentage, committing just one error last season.

She has been very durable for the Blue and Gold starting 71 of 72 possible games in her career entering the season. Junior Erin Stever and sophomore Madison Derosia also return for New Haven and will be counted on for speed around the infield. Both were valuable in reserve roles last season, scoring a combined 13 runs. Joining the Chargers are senior Senior Sade King and freshman Allie McGrory. King will play her final semester in a softball uniform after completing a successful basketball career for the Blue and Gold. OUTFIELD Junior Tori Schiebe and sophomore Sierra Whitlock are expected to return to their starting positions for the Chargers. Schiebe has started all 72 games of her career, hitting .284 last season while finishing third on the team with 17 RBI. Whitlock jumped right into the lineup last season and hit .300 while starting all 38 games, stealing six bases. Joining Schiebe and Whitlock are freshmen Alexandria Cunkle and Catherine Vaughan. Both are expected to vie for playing time as Cunkle was a Mid-Penn Commonwealth First Team member at Central Dauphin High School. A strong all-around player, Vaughan will see time in multiple positions all over the diamond.
Adding to the strong corps in the outfield are sophomores Rachel Gilmore, Vanessa Strohm and Jolie Morrell. Gilmore went 5-for-10 last season in a reserve role with two RBI. Strohm appeared in 10 On the corners, Taylor Luzzi is back at third base for her sophomore games off the bench for New Haven and Morrell singled in a run in season.

The University of New Haven seeks to provide the world with leaders who can make a positive difference in a global society. Student-athletes are afforded unique opportunities for leadership because of the visibility provided through athletics competition.
