Former Marquette women’s head coach and university alumnus Carolyn Kieger is facing allegations of alleged player harassment and trauma, according to a recent article published by Onward State.
Onward State, Penn State’s independent student media website, published a story Monday detailing former Golden Eagles and Nittany Lions players over their experience under Kieger, who coached the Golden Eagles from 2014 to 2019.
While some student-athletes spoke anonymously, former Marquette players Amanda Maqueia, Allazia Blockton and Danielle King spoke outwardly of abuse they received during their time with the program.
Blockton said in an interview with Onward State that Kieger brought a negative presence and made it so players didn’t want to play for her.
