Katie Flaschner begins her second season on the coaching staff at University of Rochester as assistant field hockey coach for the 2016 season.

Flaschner, a 2013 graduate of the University, spent last season as UR's first assistant and helped guide the Yellowjackets to an 18-6 record and a spot in the NCAA Division III Tournament, reaching the national quarterfinals.  Prior to returning to UR, Flaschner spent one season as assistant coach at Tufts University where she helped guide the Jumbos to a 12-5 record and spot in the NESCAC semi-finals.

While at Rochester, Flaschner was a 3rd Team NFHCA All-American in 2012, a two-time 1st Team All-Liberty League and two-time 1st Team All-Region selection.  She finished her career with 26 goals and 13 assists (65 points) which ranks 12th all-time at UR.  The two-time team captain earned the UR Athletic Department's Merle Spurrier Award as a senior after earning the Sylvia Fabricant Award as a junior.

Flaschner ranks 1st all-time at Rochester in games played with 82 and is second in career minutes played.  She helped the Yellowjackets earn their first ever NCAA Division III Tournament berth in 2012, eventually reaching the Elite 8 after upset victories over 12th-ranked Rowan University and 4th-ranked Salisbury University.
