Notable Women in Sports: Caitlyn Coffey

Class of 2024

Caitlyn Coffey, athlete success coordinator at Bryant & Stratton College in Milwaukee, has been serving student-athletes for the past six years.

“Having played basketball and volleyball her entire life, Caitlyn has a complete understanding of what is involved to achieve in a sport and the classroom,” said Carole Barnum, vice president at Barnum Travel. “Caitlyn takes great satisfaction in the success of her student-athletes, by their growth in the community as well as on the court/field.”

Coffey earned a bachelor’s degree in public relations and advertising from DePaul University while playing Division I volleyball.

“She had to maintain a certain level grade point as a student-athlete. This experience is now shared with her students,” Barnum said.

In addition to her day-to-day work at Bryant & Stratton, Coffey is the head coach for the girl’s 18 Black team at Milwaukee Sting volleyball club and is the assistant varsity volleyball coach at Divine Savior Holy Angels High School, the 2023 WIAA Division 1 state champions.
