Wendy AndreattA

Now in her 13th season at Rochester, Coach Andreatta has built Rochester Field Hockey into one of the top programs in the Liberty League and the North Atlantic Region. Wendy Andreatta has guided the Yellowjackets to six NCAA appearances and two Liberty League Tournament Titles during her tenure as the head coach at the University of Rochester.
 
Andreatta’s teams are 190-82 over the past 13 seasons, with ten players honored as All-Americans during those years, including 1st Team selections in Michelle Relin ('16), Tara Lamberti ('16), Sayaka Abe ('17) and Nancy Bansbach ('18). Andreatta also developed 33 players to a total of 59 All-Liberty League awards.

In 2019, the Yellowjackets won the Liberty League Tournament title, beating Vassar College at home at Fauver Stadium to capture their second-ever tournament championship. The title earned Rochester its 5th straight trip to the NCAA Tournament and 6th NCAA appearance overall.

In 2018, Andreatta and Rochester embarked on a record setting campaign, one which saw UR reach the NCAA Division III Tournament for the fourth straight year and record a school record 19 wins, ending the season 19-3.  The 'Jackets reached the national quarterfinals (Elite 8) for the third time in four seasons and held 20 of 22 opponents to one goal or less, ranking near the top of Division III in a number of statistical categories including shutouts, goals against average, save percentage, penalty corners and defensive saves.

That followed a 2017 campaign which was a banner year for the Yellowjackets. UR captured its first ever Liberty League title, completing a perfect run through conference play.  In the regular season UR was 7-0 in the Liberty League and then defeated William Smith and then Skidmore to claim the conference's automatic berth into the NCAA tournament, UR's third straight postseason appearance.  Andreatta and her staff were selected as Liberty League Coaching Staff of the Year, and also were recognized by the NFHCA as North Atlantic Regional Coaching Staff of the Year.

In both 2015 and 2016, UR reached the NCAA Division III Tournament both seasons and accumulated 18 victories in each year, matching the school record set initially in 2012.  The 2015 squad reached the NCAA national quarterfinals while the 2016 Yellowjackets reached the second round.

The 2012 season saw Andreatta's team burst onto the national scene.  She was named Dita/NFHCA North Atlantic Regional Coach of the Year in addition to her and the UR staff being named Liberty League Coaching Staff of the Year after Rochester was 18-6 and earned the programs first ever NCAA Tournament appearance, making it all the way to the national quarterfinals, upsetting #12 Rowan and #4 Salisbury in the process.  After the team's 8-0 start, Rochester broke into the national rankings for just the second time ever in the program’s 38-year history.
 
Achieving success in the classroom as well, Rochester field hockey has been named to the NFHCA All-Academic Squad in each year of the award’s existence. One of the top honors for a Rochester senior student-athlete to achieve, the Lysle “Spike” Garnish Award, has been presented to ten different field hockey team members during Andreatta’s tenure.
