FAST RISER FOR SCU
FORMER STAR OF LINEUP JUMPS TO FILLING OUT LINEUP CARDS
By Mark Gomez
Mercury News

... In July, Forman-Lau was named Santa Clara's 10th coach in 25 years, taking over for Marcy Crouch, who left after earning her MBA at Santa Clara in June. Crouch took the job shortly after her senior season at Stanford then spent five years at the helm.

... Crouch said she knows her one-time ace will face some hurdles.

``The hardest part is learning how to manage the players,'' said Crouch, who has been accepted to Boston University's sports psychology doctoral program. ``Learning how to manage people was definitely the biggest challenge for me and will be for Jaime also.''

... Just three weeks on the job, Forman-Lau recently embarked on her first recruiting trip. She spent the first few weeks moving into her office at the Leavey Center and going through boxes of letters, statistics and videos submitted by recruits.

She also sought out some advice. She recently spoke with Jerry Smith, the Broncos' highly successful women's soccer coach, to gain some insight on coaching at the collegiate level. She plans on utilizing several of the experienced coaches to help ease the transition.

``There's a lot of people here to learn from,'' Forman-Lau said.


... ``Our program's goal, which has yet to be achieved, is to make postseason,'' Forman-Lau said. ``We're in a unique situation to make that possible and keep it in our own hands.''
