To e-mail Head Coach Colleen Mahon, please click here

Former Drew University two-sport standout Colleen Mahon has led the Royals to a 21-17 record over the past two seasons, including back-to-back winning seasons and berths in the Freedom Conference tournament.  Scranton's 11 victories this past season is the most for the program since 1998.  

A native of nearby Shavertown, Pennsylvania, Mahon was a four-year letter-winner in field hockey for the Rangers from 2001-2004.  She served as team captain her senior year as the Rangers posted a 14-8 overall record, won the Freedom Conference championship and advanced to the NCAA tournament.  She led Drew and the Freedom Conference in scoring (51 total points) and assists (19) to earn first-team all-league honors for the third straight season.  

In Drew’s 3-2 overtime victory against The University of Scranton in the Freedom Conference championship game on November 6, Mahon had the assist on Ellen Balkovek’s game-winning goal at the 76:07 mark as the Rangers won their seventh conference title in school history.

 In addition to being named Freedom Conference tri-player of the year, she was named all-regional and all-American by the National Field Hockey Coaches Association (NFHCA).  She is a two-time member of the NHFCA Academic Squad, three-time member of the Middle Atlantic Conference Academic Honor Roll, as well as being named the New Jersey Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (NJAIAW) Woman of the Year and Drew University Alumni Association Female Athlete of the Year for 2005.   She was also named the Freedom Conference Rookie of the Year in 2001. 

Mahon, who also lettered in softball for Drew for three seasons and earned all-regional honors for her play during the 2003 season, holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in behavioral science with a minor in art.  She has served as a field hockey instructor and counselor at the Ford Fitness and Field Hockey Camp in Madison, New Jersey, during the summers of 2002 and 2004. She is the eighth head coach in University of Scranton history.
