Kate Ryan

Kate Ryan enters her second season as head women's lacrosse coach in 2023-24. She also works in the financial aid office on campus.


In Ryan's first campaign, she led the Rams to a 10-9 record and an appearance in the CACC final, where Jefferson suffered a heartbreaking overtime loss. Four Rams earned All-CACC honors, including Ellie Lefton whose 72 assists set a new single-season program record and her 106 points tied the all-time mark.


Prior to Jefferson, Ryan was on the coaching staff at Findlay for the 2022 season, where she had a hand in preparing practice plans and recruiting. The Oilers reached the Great Midwest Athletic Conference final. Prior, Ryan was an assistant coach for two years at Division I Delaware State.


Locally, Ryan has coached the game at the middle school level for NXT Lacrosse Club in Conshohocken. She has also served as a sports performance coach for middle and high school grades at Athletes Arbor in Collegeville.


Ryan played collegiately at Division I Monmouth, where she was a Second Team All-MAAC selection on defense in 2018. She was also chosen to the 2018 MAAC All-Tournament Team and was named her team's most valuable player.


A native of Morton, PA and a graduate of Springfield High School, Ryan earned a bachelor's degree in health and physical education from Monmouth and later received a master's in sport administration from Delaware State.

Showcase Tips

Are you ready for your next college showcase?
I have had a profile on SINC Soccer for 4 years, and it helped me to organize my information so that I was ready when the recruiting process started. I had selected some schools using your site when I was 13 and that helped to start the conversation with those schools and find out about their ID camps, and when UNC made an offer I was prepared.
