Baylor Standout Named New Assistant Coach

DENTON, Tex. – Texas Woman’s University head soccer coach Fleur Benatar announced today that Tamura Crawley has been named the new assistant soccer coach for the 2004 Pioneers.

Crawley was a standout soccer player and four-year letterwinner at Baylor University. She was a Big XII All-Conference selection every season and twice received All-Central Region honors from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) and Soccer Buzz. Crawley was even honored nationally as a member of Soccer America’s Team of the Week. She received her bachelor’s degree in Communication Sciences & Disorders from Baylor in December 2003.

A native of Mesquite, Texas, Crawley played club soccer for the Texas Image ‘81 Blue and Texas Longhorns ‘81 Teams.

"I am very excited about the knowledge, playing experience, and work ethic that Tamura is going to bring to our team," Benatar said. "I feel that we will work well together. She is very driven and has what it takes to bring our team to the next level."

The Pioneers are coming off a 3-12-2 season in 2003 – just their second year as a NCAA Division II program and member of the Lone Star Conference. The 2004 TWU squad will kick off its season on August 29.
