Former Drexel University star Colleen (Rocks) Slotman joined the Rutgers-Camden coaching staff in September as the new head coach of the Scarlet Raptors’ lacrosse program. She becomes the fourth head coach in the history of the program bringing a new outlook and looking to build a program ready to compete in the New Jersey Athletic Conference.


Slotman comes to Rutgers-Camden after serving as an Assistant Varsity/JV Coach at scholastic powerhouse Moorestown High School from January 2019 to June 2022.

Slotman started every lacrosse game during her tenure at Drexel (2003-2006) and served as a captain of the Dragons during the 2005-2006 season. She started her career becoming the Dragons’ first ever Colonial Athletic Association Rookie of the Week winner in April 2003. During her senior season, she captured the Colonial Athletic Association Player of the Week (April 2006) and was recognized with the Most Improved Player Award.


Slotman ranks 10th in Drexel’s record book for points (162) and goals (122) and is 11th for career assists (40).


A Secondary Education with concentration in Biology major at Drexel, she was a two-time winner of the Colonial Athletic Association Commissioner’s Academic Award (2003 and 2005) and served as the treasurer of the Student Athlete Advisory Committee (2005-2006). She graduated in 2006.


During her scholastic days at Washington Township High School, Slotman captured four varsity letters as a field hockey midfielder. She also earned varsity letters for indoor track and lacrosse (midfield/attack). She captured All-Conference Second Team honors in field hockey as a senior.


Coach Slotman is excited about setting new expectations for the Scarlet Raptors Women’s Lacrosse team. When not coaching, Coach Slotman enjoys spending time with her husband and three children.
