Former Eagles great Sarah Johnson is entering her second season as a member of the Boston College field hockey coaching staff. She joined the coaching ranks in May 2023 after an All-American playing career at BC and Stanford.
"She has a real passion for the game and has competed at a high level both collegiately and in the USA systems. Being voted a team captain in her final season here speaks volumes on who Sarah is as a teammate and as a person," said head coach Kelly Doton. "Her leadership qualities will benefit our players, and future players, in our program. We can't wait to work with her."
Originally from Oxford, Pa. Johnson enjoyed a highly-decorated college field hockey career. Before arriving at BC in 2021, she was a three-time America East champion at Stanford and earned selections to the 2019-20 America East West-Division All-Conference Team, the 2019-20 America East All-Championship Team, the 2017 America East All-Rookie Team, and garnered America East Championship Most Outstanding Player honors in 2019.
Her success carried over to Chestnut Hill, as she earned back-to-back Second Team All-ACC honors in 2021 and 2022. Johnson started every game of her two-year playing career at Boston College, leading the team in goals (6), assists (5), and points (17) in 2021. After finishing her final season with the Eagles this past fall, Johnson punctuated her collegiate success with a selection to the 2023 FIH Indoor World Cup Team.
"I am beyond excited to be returning to Chestnut Hill and could not imagine a better place to begin my coaching career," Johnson said. "From the moment I stepped on campus as a student-athlete two years ago, I knew there was something special at Boston College and within the field hockey program. I am so grateful to Kelly, the coaching staff, and the athletic department for giving me this opportunity and allowing me to continue to be a part of the culture and legacy. It's truly an honor to be in a position now to give back to this program, sport, and these athletes. I'm looking forward to continuing to grow alongside this team and staff. Go Eagles!"
