During Kathleen Lemieux’s six years as an assistant coach at Cal Poly (2009-14), the Mustangs went 31-15-3 in the Big West Conference.
While helping with all facets of the program, Lemieux particularly specialized in mentoring the defense, which imposed 35 shutouts throughout her tenure.
She coached three NSCAA All-West Region players in the Cal Poly back line (including Cristina Farrington in the 2013 championship season), as well as eight others who earned all-conference status.
Twice since 2010, the Mustangs tied the all-time school record by not allowing a shot on goal during an entire match.
Lemieux was a defender at UC Irvine, where she started 71 times, which tied for No. 3 in program history. She was a team captain as a senior in 2008, and was the squad’s Defensive MVP in each of her final two seasons.
As a junior, she was also named an All-Big West honorable mention after leading the Anteaters through a 10-shutout season that reached the semifinals of the conference tournament.
Lemieux made the conference’s All-Academic Team every year while at UCI.
She also made the Dean’s List for 10 quarters, was a member of the Golden Key Honor Society, and earned a degree in psychology, graduating with honors in 2009.
