"Megan Fox is an up-and-coming coach in women's basketball and we are really excited to have her coaching our program," said Balcer. "Throughout the interview process, the thing that stood out most to me was her commitment to building up the women in this program and forming a family. That is what coaching is all about and I am really excited to watch this program grow under Coach Fox's tutelage."
A 2015 graduate of Arcadia University, Fox comes to Chestnut Hill after two seasons as the Head Women's Basketball coach at Penn State-Abington, guiding the Nittany Lions to 20 wins over her two seasons and advancing to the finals of the United East Volt Division Tournament Championship last season.
"I am thrilled to embark on this new journey as the new Chestnut Hill College Head Women's Basketball Coach," said Fox. "Coaching is not just a job for me, it is a passion, a calling and a chance to make a lasting impact. I am committed to continuing the winning success of this program that is built on hard work, discipline and a love for the game. I would like to thank Jesse Balcer and the entire athletic department for this opportunity to grow personally and professionally. We will win together, lose together and grow together. We're not just a team, we're a family - let's make this season one for the record books!"
