With four years amassed as a Green Terror volleyball standout, two as an assistant coach and the past 15 seasons as the head coach, Molloy has been a part of over 600 matches in her career on the Hill. Her incredible run has included eight postseason trips – four as a player and four more on the sidelines.

Molloy’s success as a coach took little time to surface. After her apprenticeship at then Western Maryland (now McDaniel) in 1986 and 1987, Molloy landed her first head coaching position at Susquehanna. There, she led the Crusaders to a pair of 23-win seasons and two Middle Atlantic Conference playoff berths in five years, tying the program record for wins in a season.

In 1993, Molloy returned to her alma mater as the third coach in program history. She led the Green Terror to its first Centennial Conference title in 1994 and has kept the program at a peak level since. In 1999, her squad shared the conference crown. Her team’s high level of play has carried her into the AVCA Tachikara Victory Club, hitting the century mark in 1993, earning win No. 200 in 1998 and eclipsing the 300-win mark in 2005.

With a master’s degree in physical education administration from Western Maryland, Molloy competed in volleyball, basketball and track while an undergrad. As a senior, she won the Charles W. Havens award, given to the senior student-athlete who best combines athletic achievement and humanitarianism.

Molloy has served as chairperson of the NCAA Mid-Atlantic Region Advisory Committee and was a member of the NCAA Division III Women’s Volleyball Committee in 1997 and again from 1999 until 2001. A member of the American Volleyball Coaches Association, she has served as a national poll voter since 1994.

Molloy resides in Carroll County with her husband Terry, Westminster High School’s Coordinator of Facilities and Athletics Director.

Her arrival on the volleyball staff marks a return to the Hill for Schmoeller. Prior to her tenure with the Seahawks, she served two seasons as an assistant on the field hockey and women's lacrosse staffs.

A 2004 graduate of St. Mary's (Md.) with a bachelor of arts in human studies, she was a four-year starter on both the volleyball and women's lacrosse teams. An outside hitter and senior captain on the volleyball team, she ranked fifth in digs and ninth in kills at the time of her graduation.
