Knowledgeable about the sport but if you aren’t one of her favorites it’s not an enjoyable experience by any means.

Rachel is always focused on what’s best for the team and the student athletes apart of the team. She goes above and beyond to make the team cohesive and fun, all while working hard on and off the ice.

Rachel works really hard to make sure we as a team are prepared and confident. She goes above and beyond in many aspects of her coaching and can be extremely helpful in a time of need. She has taught me a lot and has encouraged a lot of personal growth. Overall, I don’t know where I’d be today without her and I appreciate all the support and opportunities she’s given me in my career thus far.

During my time under Rachel there was A LOT of issues. She would contact athlete’s parents when having any sort of issues with ADULT athletes, which is illegal. She left a skater behind at a competition. She also made a skater skate on a broken foot for half of the season then kicked her off of the team for trying to speak out about it. The hotels we stayed in for competitions were not always safe, there was a specific instance in which there had to be police officers scouring the halls because of the area. There were skaters with certain dietary needs that she would not accommodate to during competition weekends, leaving some skaters without meals. Overall I wouldn’t recommend going to the school to skate specifically because of the way Rachel treats her athletes.

Single handedly ruined my love for the sport. All Rachel gives you is empty promises and politics play a huge part in your success on the team and the opportunities you are given. Your actual talent, drive, and hard work gets you nowhere.

Overall she needs to be more mature and handle problems better than trying to blame the athletes.
