Deb Hagie joins the staff for her seventh season as an assistant coach at Providence. In addition to her role working with the Friar goalkeepers, she also is heavily involved in the Friars' team-building and team-dynamic development. Hagie began working with the team during Providence’s spring, non-traditional season in 2005. Hagie, a Providence College graduate, was a stand-out goalkeeper for the Friars from 1989 to 1992. During her four-year career, she was a twotime All-Region selection in 1990 and 1991. She also was named the Most Outstanding Performer at the conclusion of the 1991 BIG EAST Conference Championship. That season, the Friars captured the BIG EAST title with a, 1-0, overtime victory against Connecticut. Hagie was credited with the shutout in goal, and remains the only Friar in program history to have earned Most Outstanding Performer honors at the BIG EAST Field Hockey Championship. Hagie served as the head field hockey coach at South Kingstown High School (R.I.), where she led her squad to its first State Championship in 27 years. She also has served as an assistant coach at Yale, Rhode Island and Connecticut.
