What is the best part about coaching at F&M? 

My favorite part about being a coach at F&M is that I get to give back to the program that shaped me as a player and a person. It鈥檚 a full-circle experience 鈥� I get to help current student-athletes grow, while carrying forward the traditions and lessons I learned when I was the one in the jersey.

Looking back at your time as a student, why did you choose to attend F&M?

I chose F&M because it was a place where I could grow. I wanted to push myself in new ways 鈥� academically, athletically and personally. I knew I鈥檇 be challenged in the classroom while also competing at a high level on the field.

• Major: Special studies (business, history and Japanese)

What is the best part about coaching at F&M? 

I love having the opportunity to learn about building community through the game of football from a different perspective. Having spent most of my time in the sport as a player, I get to learn from a new angle now that I am on the coaching side. Finding ways to contribute to the success of the team and the student-athletes is always at the forefront of any coach's mind. Now I can do that knowing many of the things that our players will feel and experience during their time at F&M.

Looking back at your time as a student, why did you choose to attend F&M?

I chose F&M because I admired how well-rounded all of the student-athletes were. They were not just talented and highly competitive athletes, but leaders who were actively pursuing their passions academically and professionally.

Mary Kate Salko '01

• Head coach
• Major: Business 

What is the best part about coaching at F&M? 

I love working with such bright and motivated young women and being a part of their development during their four years at F&M. Volleyball is something that helps my student-athletes learn so many life skills, and it's fun to see those things transfer to their lives after graduation. I also appreciate getting to be on F&M's beautiful campus every day and try not to take it for granted! I take a walk around campus almost every day to remind myself how lucky I am to get to spend time here and continue to represent F&M as a coach. 

Looking back at your time as a student, why did you choose to attend F&M? 

I chose F&M because it was a place that would push me outside of my comfort zone academically and provide support during that growth process. I really didn't know what I wanted to study and felt that F&M would teach me how to think critically and become a good problem solver. I had the opportunity to take classes with some of the best professors to teach at F&M (Alan Caniglia, Maria Mitchell, Misty Bastian, Brian Steffy and Sam Wagner, to name a few) and they challenged me to be a stronger writer, thinker and debater. I also wanted to play for a successful volleyball team where I could make a difference, and F&M offered me that.

• Head coach
• Major: Spanish; concurrent teaching certification at Millersville University

What is the best part about coaching at F&M? 

Coaching at F&M as an alumna means being part of a full-circle story. I know firsthand what it means to wear 鈥淒iplomats鈥� across your chest, to balance academics and athletics, and to represent this incredible college. Helping current players experience that same pride and sense of belonging is the most rewarding part of the job.

Looking back at your time as a student, why did you choose to attend F&M?

I chose F&M because it offered the perfect balance between strong academics and competitive athletics. I wanted to be challenged in the classroom while also competing at a high level on the court and on the field. F&M gave me the opportunity to do both. The small class sizes and supportive professors made it possible to pursue excellence in every area.

The softball and basketball programs at F&M immediately felt like home. The coaching staff cared about me as a person, not just as a player, and the team culture was one of hard work, accountability and genuine support. I wanted to be part of programs that pushed me to grow both as an athlete and as a leader 鈥� and that鈥檚 exactly what I found here.

From my first visit, I felt a strong sense of community. Everyone I met 鈥� from teammates to faculty 鈥� was welcoming and driven. I knew I鈥檇 be surrounded by people who would challenge me, encourage me and celebrate my growth. It wasn鈥檛 just about playing sports; it was about being part of something bigger.

I chose F&M because I wanted an experience that would shape me for life beyond college. The combination of academic rigor, athletic discipline and leadership opportunities has helped me build confidence, resilience and purpose. It鈥檚 a place that prepares you to succeed in whatever comes next.
