After serving as a volunteer coach for nearly a year and a half, Chrissy Focht was promoted to a full-time assistant in March of 2012. She is responsible for coaching the pitchers.
A former pitcher herself, Focht brings over 13 years of coaching experience to the Owls' program. Before getting into the coaching ranks, however, she played four years (1993-97) at Camden Catholic High School, with DiPietro as her coach, and extended her career to Rutgers-Camden for two collegiate seasons (1998-99).
After a shoulder injury cut her college career short, Focht went back to Camden Catholic to serve as the JV coach under DiPietro. In 2007, she was named the varsity head coach, and led her team to an undefeated conference championship in 2008.
In addition to her high school coaching resume, Focht was the head coach and manager of the Outlaws Silver team from 1999-2008. She has also been a private pitching instructor with Hit Doctor Baseball and Softball Academy since 2003.
