History

Field hockey has been a varsity sport at Ohio State University since 1971. From 1982 to 1988 and again from 1992 to the present, Ohio State has played in the Big Ten Conference. Between 1989 and 1991, the team played in the Midwestern Collegiate Field Hockey Conference.[2] The Buckeyes have won three regular-season Big Ten championships, in 2001, 2006, and 2010, and one Big Ten conference tournament title, in 2001.[2][3] Ohio State has also made seven appearances in the NCAA tournament, advancing past the first round twice, and once reaching the semifinals, in 2010.[2] The Buckeyes are currently coached by Anne Wilkinson, who is in her 19th season as the team's head coach.[4] Prior to her tenure, Ohio State had previously been coached by Mary Raysa (1971–72), Harriet Reynolds (1973–86), and Karen Weaver (1987–95).[2]
