Winthrop University Women's Softball

Fuller was promoted to co-head coach effective June 1,2015 as she is in her fourth season with the Eagle softball program.     Fuller came to Winthrop after a two-year stint at Western Carolina where she was a volunteer assistant coach while earning a Masters of Science degree with an emphasis in Biology. Her duties with the Catamounts included coaching first base and the outfield, assisting in recruiting and travel coordination as well as practice planning, hitting and the organization/direction of camps and clinics. Fuller also served as the academic liaison between softball and academic support as well as developing and maintaining scouting reports.     One of the most notable things Fuller did at Western Carolina was designing an academic success plan resulting in five NFCA Academic All-Americans. She also coached center fielder Erin Foster, who voted to the First Team All-Southern Conference as well as an NFCA Mid-East First Team All-Region selection.     Winthrop and Western Carolina had faced off four times in the two seasons before she was hired so Fuller had a little familiarity with the Eagles. Plus Fuller served as a guest coach for Winthrop Softball Camp in 2011.     Prior to her collegiate level coaching experience, Fuller was an assistant varsity softball coach at South Brunswick H.S. in Southport, NC. She was an assistant coach for varsity basketball and the head coach of the junior varsity girls basketball team as well.     Fuller, a 2008 graduate from Appalachian State, has been a member of the National Fastpitch Coaches Association since 2010. Fuller earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology and Secondary Education from Appalachian State.
