Penn State Field Hockey Will Not Retain Head Coach Lisa Bervinchak Love

Another Nittany Lion program is getting a change in leadership.

Penn State field hockey is not renewing the contract of head coach Lisa Bervinchak Love, Penn State Athletics announced last week.

“We are so grateful to Lisa for her many years of dedication to Penn State field hockey and the impact she has had on countless student-athletes,” Vice President for Intercollegiate Athletics Pat Kraft said in a press release. “After careful evaluation, we decided to make a change in leadership as we look to the future of the program. We thank Lisa for her commitment to our university and wish her the very best in her next chapter.”

The Nittany Lions finished the 2025 season 7-10 with Bervinchak Love at the helm for her third season. Bervinchak Love had been on staff with the blue and white for 30 years.

Bervinchak Love replaced legendary Penn State field hockey head coach Char Morett-Curtiss after the 2022 season.

Penn State will begin searching for its next head coach immediately.
