Field Hockey - Varsity

The Wyoming Seminary girls field hockey program is steeped in tradition. Field hockey has been part of the Wyoming Seminary athletic program since the early 1920s. In fact, Sem was a pioneer, introducing field hockey to the greater Scranton and Wilkes-Barre areas. Wyoming Seminary is proud of the tradition created by past teams and has tried to uphold the high standards set by past alumnae. For more information contact Coach Karen Klassner at kklassner@wyomingseminary.org.

Margaret Kerrick — Head Coach

The 2023 season will be Margaret Kerrick's first as Head Field Hockey Coach at Wyoming Seminary. She had previously been an assistant coach for 21 seasons under the legendary Karen Klassner, who retired following the 2022 campaign.

Kerrick is a graduate of Earlham College in Indiana, where she played field hockey and softball while earning a bachelor's degree in sociology. Although she played offense in college, Kerrick's coaching at Sem focused on the team's defense. Kerrick was an assistant coach for nine of Sem's 10 all-time PIAA state championships.

Prior to joining the coaching staff at Sem, Kerrick was an assistant coach for 10 seasons at Misericordia University.
