Regional Chairperson for the South Region, previous Head Women’s
Basketball Coach and Assistant to the Sports Information Director at

Stephanie brings an impressive high school and college coaching resume

Head Women’s Basketball Coach and Assistant to the Sports Information
Director at Berry College in Mount Berry, Georgia. Prior to her time at
Berry College, she was Associate Director of Admission and Head Girls

understanding and appreciation for what it means to be a complete
student-athlete,” Mitch Jordan, MPCS Athletic Director, said. “We want
to win on the court, but most importantly, we try to develop the whole
person. At the core is the student-athlete’s relationship with Christ.
MPC is developing future leaders. Stephanie fully embraces this
philosophy as a coach and leader.”

Admissions Director where she recruited students from the metro Atlanta
area, managed families throughout the application process, planned
admissions events, served as leadership on scholarship committees and
networked with college admission recruiters. In addition to admissions

strong faith, a heart for service, admission and public relations
skills, and the unique Christian leadership needed to mentor young
