IOWA CITY, Iowa -- University of Iowa director of athletics Gary Barta announced Tuesday that Katie Dougherty has resigned as head coach of the UI women’s tennis program.
Dougherty, a native of Ellicott City, Maryland, is expecting to accept an assistant coaching position at the University of Maryland.
“I want to thank Gary Barta and everyone at the University of Iowa for their support the past seven years,” Dougherty said. “I have had the privilege of working with exceptional student-athletes, assistant coaches, and support staff. This was a very difficult decision, but we have the opportunity to relocate our growing family closer to home and to pursue a new opportunity.
