This year marks Coach Jan Reddinger's thirteenth season coaching the Westminster Softball team. In her first season coaching the Westminster softball team in 1997, Reddinger’s team compiled a 22-21 record while completing its fifth consecutive conference/district title. The winning continued in 1998, as Westminster tallied a sixth straight conference/district crown and a trip to the NAIA Northeast Regional tournament in Rutland, Vt. For the season, the Titans posted a 24-18 mark.
While earning coach of the year honors in the Presidents’ Athletic Conference (PAC), Reddinger guided the 2007 team to a 24-15 record and an 11-1 league record. The Titans qualified for the postseason for the fourth time in seven seasons when they received a bid to the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Division III South Championships.
Reddinger has a Bachelor of Arts degree in physical/health education from West Liberty State College, where she played both softball and basketball. She also earned a master’s degree in physical education/sports administration from Eastern Illinois University.
Coach Reddinger sat down with me and explained her views on Title IX. She also explains how it has helped women's sports to expand and how the act helped her personally.
