Softball head coach Rachel Hanson will not return for the 2014-2015 season after four seasons with the Big Green, athletics director Harry Sheehy said Thursday. Hanson led the team to its first-ever Ivy League Championship title this past season, and the team played in the NCAA Tournament for the first time.
Hanson will take on the position of head coach for the Stanford University softball team next year. Dartmouth athletics will begin the national search for a new coach immediately.
Next Tuesday, The Dartmouth will look into Hanson’s departure and its implications for the Dartmouth team.
