About Our Coaches
Ann Andrews was named Head Field Hockey Coach of The University of the South team in Sewanee, TN this May 2022.
Most recently the Head Coach at St. Paul’s School for Girls, the 2021 IAAM Field Hockey Champions. Prior to St. Paul’s, Ann was head coach of Hood College after a successful six-year run as head coach at Severna Park High School in Maryland. Additionally, Ann serves as the Region 7 (Chesapeake Region) United States Field Hockey (USFHA) Nexus Manger.
Andrews coached Severna Park to back-to-back-to-back Maryland 4A State Championships from 2013-15. Andrews was a two-time Coach of the Year via the Washington Post and earned similar honors from both the Baltimore Sun and Capital Gazette.
Andrews was the club director and head coach for Storm Chasers Field Hockey Club, starting the Annapolis-based program from scratch in 2012. Storm Chasers rose to the third-ranked club in Maryland and No. 54 in the country during its first five seasons.
She has a USFHA Level II Coaching Certificate and earned certification from the National Federation of High Schools in heat acclimation/heat illness prevention, concussions in sports and sportsmanship. Andrews is a certified personal trainer, fitness nutritionist and mental toughness coach through the National Academy of Sports Medicine.
A graduate of Notre Dame (Md.), she earned a bachelor's degree in communication arts and secondary education. Andrews was a two-sport student-athlete for the Gators, earning team captain and team MVP honors in both field hockey and women's lacrosse.
Palumbo was named the head field hockey coach at Catholic University on March 26, 2020. During her first season she led the Cardinals to the Landmark Conference Championship game by defeating top-seeded Moravian in overtime. This makes the Cardinals just the third team in the 14 year tournament history to upset the #1 seed as the #4 seed.
Palumbo came to Catholic after two seasons as an assistant coach at Middlebury where she won back-to-back National Championships in 2018 and 2019. Under Katharine DeLorenzo, she helped guide the Panthers to a school record 21 wins each year and a 42-2 overall record, including a mark of 18-2 in the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC). Middlebury was also recognized as the National Field Hockey Coaches Association (NFHCA) National Coaching Staff of the Year twice and won two NESCAC championships.
Palumbo, who received her USA Field Hockey Level II Accreditation in Spring 2019, served as the recruiting coordinator for the Panthers who had six All-America, eight all-region and eight All-NESCAC selections the last two seasons. Middlebury also boasted the 2019 NESCAC Rookie of the Year, Katie George, who led the team with 13 goals and 29 points this season.
In November 2018, Palumbo joined DeLorenzo on a community service trip to Jharkhand, India where she participated in a week-long field hockey residential program for young women ages 14-17 known as the East India Field Hockey Project.
Palumbo spent the 2016 and 2017 seasons as a graduate assistant coach at Salisbury under Dawn Chamberlin. The Sea Gulls posted a record of 30-7 during her two seasons, advancing to the national semifinals of the NCAA Division III Field Hockey Championship and winning a Capital Athletic Conference (CAC) in 2016. The team also finished the 2016 season ranked at No. 2 in the NFHCA Coaches Poll.
As a player, Palumbo appeared in 68 games and made 47 starts as a defensive midfielder at Division I James Madison. She scored two game-winning, overtime goals for the Dukes who made three Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) Field Hockey Championship appearances, advancing to the finals in 2014.
Palumbo began her coaching career as an assistant coach at Perkiomen Valley High School in Collegeville, Pennsylvania. While there, she served as the head coach for the USA Field Hockey Futures Program Site 5Y and as a coach for X-Calibur Elite Indoor Field Hockey Club. While at Salisbury, she coached for the Shore Byrds Field Hockey Club.
Palumbo received her bachelor's degree in kinesiology and exercise science with a minor in coaching education from James Madison in 2015 before earning a master's in postsecondary education from Salisbury in May 2018.

Greg W. I cannot believe how much my daughter improve in just a couple days. Although she was nervous, the coaches were very welcoming and was able to make friends throughout the entire week. I feel that the scrimmages, games, and matchplay definitely helped her improve through many different types of gameplay. She loved the prizes she received too as she was reward for winning the last game of the week. I love this camp and we highly recommend this camp!

James C. As a parent, I was thoroughly impressed with GameBreaker Lacrosse Camp. The coaches were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the sport, providing personalized attention to each camper. My child not only improved their lacrosse skills but also gained confidence both on and off the field. The emphasis on teamwork and sportsmanship was evident throughout the camp. Highly recommend for any young lacrosse player looking to take their game to the next level.
