Corrine Ybarra was announced as the second head coach of the Marian women's lacrosse program in July of 2021.
"I am so excited to have Corrine as our next head women's lacrosse coach," said Director of Athletics Jason Bartelt. "She has coached at a wide range of levels, and I am looking forward to her building our program to a championship level."
Ybarra takes the lead for the Marian women's lacrosse program after serving the past two seasons as the head coach at William Penn University. As the inaugural coach at WPU, Ybarra lead the program to an 8-12 record over two seasons with seven of those defeats coming to teams receiving votes in the NAIA national poll. This past season, the Statesmen went 6-8 on the season with an even 5-5 mark in conference play, good for fifth in the KCAC standings. Ybarra also had two student-athletes earn all-conference recognition, the first postseason award honorees in program history.
"I would like to thank Jason Bartelt and the hiring committee for believing in me to take on the women's lacrosse program," said Ybarra. "I am excited and thankful to become a part of the Marian family. I can't wait to continue to build the foundation for this program and work with the current team and staff. I want to thank my friends and family for their support in this new role. Go Sabres!"
