McDaniel College

Wolverton begins her second year as the Student-Athlete Wellbeing Coordinator in 2023-24. In that role, she conducts student welfare and professional development programming for all student-athletes and coaches.

In May 2019, Wolverton was tabbed as the department’s first Assistant Director of Athletics for Student-Athlete Services, stepping down after seven seasons as the volleyball coach to focus full-time on administration. In that role, she monitored eligibility and served as a liaison to the NCAA and Centennial Conference related to rules questions for all 24 varsity sports. She also served as the department's primary administrator for all diversity and inclusion programs and as the department's liaison to the office of student and academic affairs.

Wolverton was the department's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee advisor from 2012-18 when she relinquished that duty to take over as director of compliance.

As the head volleyball coach, Wolverton posted a 120-84 record in seven seasons, guiding the Green Terror to the postseason in five of her last six seasons. She won the conference title in 2015 and guided the squad back to the title game in 2018. The two-time CC Coach of the Year became just the second person in league history to win a conference championship as both a player and a coach.

Prior to taking over at McDaniel, she spent two seasons as the head volleyball coach at Sewanee where she also served as the assistant sports information director and as an instructor in the physical education department.

A native of Lancaster, Pa., Wolverton was a standout volleyball and soccer player at Hempfield High School before playing volleyball collegiately at Centennial Conference foe Gettysburg. In 2010, she was inducted into the Hempfield Athletics Hall of Fame and in 2023 was inducted into the Gettysburg Hall of Athletic Honor.

The 2003 CC Player of the Year, she was part of four conference championship teams during her time as a Bullet. She was a first-team AVCA All-Mid-Atlantic selection in 2003, also garnering honorable mention All-America accolades, before being selected as an honorable mention all-region selection in 2004. During her four years leading the team, the Bullets racked up a 108-34 record, including a mark of 37-3 in conference play.

A two-time All-CC first-team selection, Wolverton finished her career at Gettysburg 1,605 career kills – a total which still ranks third in program history. She also notched 1,339 career digs, which is still ninth all-time, to become one of just eight players in program history to be part of the 1,000-kill, 1,000-dig club.

Wolverton graduated cum laude from Gettysburg in 2005 with a bachelor of arts in psychology. After graduation, she went to Florida State University and spent the 2006 and 2007 seasons as a graduate assistant with the Seminoles volleyball program while earning her masters of science from the Department of Educational Psychology and Learning Systems.
