Lou Ann’s coaching philosophy is to teach the skills needed to play the game at any level and how to work with others on your team, being a team member on and off the court. Most importantly, she wants them to love the game and the journey it takes them on.

She loves working with the players, seeing them improve, and watching them fall in love with the game. She has developed many relationships playing and coaching; she wants that experience for all the players.

Lou Ann lives in Manhattan Beach and is the AD and Administrator of Gym and Field at American Martyrs School. She and her husband have four children; spending time with her family is her favorite hobby.

“The only one who can tell you ‘you can’t win’ is you…
…and you don’t have to listen.“
