Izzy Trottier is currently in her second season as the head softball coach at Albright College.
As the Lions' head coach Trottier is responsible for all facets of the program including the recruitment of future players, and the organization and implementation of practice and game-day plans.
Trottier came to Albright after serving as the assistant coach at Alvernia University since 2009. While with the Crusaders, Trottier served as the team’s pitching coach and helped the team to back-to-back ECAC South Region Tournament appearances (2010 & 2011). During her three seasons, she guided the school’s first female All-American in Rhiannon Sorrentino. In 2011, Trottier helped the Crusaders pitching staff to a combined 23-13 record and a 2.82 ERA. Her trio of pitchers tallied a combined 175 strikeouts, which was third-most in the Commonwealth Conference.
A native of Canada, Trottier has had a standout career north of the border as part of the Provincial Women’s Softball Association. Amongst her many accomplishments in Canada was a silver medal in 2007 as a member of the U23 Pickering Heat, and a silver medal in 2005 at the Canada Summer Games as a member of Team Ontario.
As a player, Trottier attended Winthrop University in Rocky Hill, South Carolina. A four-year member of the Eagles pitching staff, Trottier led Winthrop to two Big South championships in 2007 and 2008. During those two seasons, Winthrop defeated Division I powerhouses such as the University of North Carolina, Tennessee Tech, UC Davis, and North Carolina State.
Not only was she a standout in the circle, Trottier also excelled in the classroom as she was named to the Big South Presidential Honor Roll three consecutive times (2006-2008).
Trottier graduated from Winthrop in 2008 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Physical Education. In May of 2010, she earned her Master’s Degree in Education from Alvernia.
On top of her coaching responsibilities at Albright, Trottier will also serve as an admissions counselor.
