Stephanie Zalewski enters her second season in 2011 as a member of Bryant’s coaching staff. 

In 2010, she guided the squad to a record of 5-13-2. The Bulldogs, predicted to finish eighth in the NEC in the preseason coaches' poll beat that forecast finishing seventh, and gave some of the top teams in the conference scares in the process.

Before returning to her alma mater, Zalewski spent two years as the Assistant Women’s Soccer Coach at Division III Drew University in Madison, NJ.  Over the past two years, Zalewski has also coached and trained teams in the Parsippany Soccer Club, leading the current U15G to the Super Y-League National Semi-Finals in 2009.

As a member of Bryant’s class of 2008, Zalewski was a critical piece of the Bulldog attack during their final four years at the Division II level, playing in 88 games, the most in school history. Zalewski helped the Bulldogs set a program record of 17 wins in 2007 while reaching No. 2 in the nation and finishing the season at No. 13 in Division II.   Zalewski had career totals of 14 goals and seven assists while also garnering Northeast-10 Conference All-Academic honors in 2007.  In her tenure as a Bulldog, her team was two-time Northeast-10 Conference Finalists and appeared twice in the NCAA Tournament. Zalewski graduated cum laude from Bryant in 2008 with a degree in Business Management. A high school graduate of Parsippany High School in Parsippany, New Jersey, she was an All-Conference, All-County, and All-Area selection in soccer.

As the women’s soccer graduate assistant, she will be involved with all aspects of the program. While coaching she will also be pursuing a Masters Degree in Business Administration at Bryant University.
