New head coach Doctor Megan Brown discusses Lancer softball

FARMVILLE, Va. – Fall is here, and with it a new face in the Longwood softball dugout in Dr. Megan Brown, who takes over the program following the retirement of legendary head coach Kathy Riley. Sam Hovan, Voice of the Lancers, had a chance to sit down with Brown to discuss Longwood softball on LongwoodLancers.com's "What The Elwood?" podcast. In the podcast, Brown describes what brought her to Longwood, her coaching philosophy, vision for the program and what she has learned in her more than a decade as a college coach. She also answers some fun "getting to know you" questions, including how she started playing softball after playing baseball as a kid on her brother's team. Brown comes to Longwood with a coaching resume that includes time in the ACC, PAC-12 and SEC, along with extensive playing credentials that include a record-setting All-American career at Florida Southern and six years on the professional softball circuit at home and abroad. Stay tuned for the next episode of "What the Elwood?" or check out previous episodes for more insight into the people that make Longwood athletics what it is.
