COLLEGE WEEKLY: Spotlight on Stevenson University. A Powerhouse in Field Hockey and Academics.

Stevenson University, located in Owings Mills, Maryland, is proud to host a dynamic Division III field hockey program within the Mid Atlantic Conference (Commonwealth). Training on a state-of-the-art Astroturf field at the expansive 120+ acre Owings Mills East Campus, the Stevenson field hockey team has built a reputation for excellence both on and off the field.

​The team's core values—commitment, trust, respect, passion, and well-roundedness—are evident in every aspect of their play and daily interactions. The 2023 season marked a significant achievement, recording the most team wins since 2015 and securing a conference tournament playoff berth for the first time since then. The season was further highlighted by the recognition of Emma Gladstein as the MAC Commonwealth Offensive Player of the Year and a NFHCA Region V First Team selection—the first such honors since 2014.

The coaching staff, led by Head Coach Morgan Bitting, is dedicated to fostering growth in their athletes as both players and individuals. Coach Bitting, in her third season with the Mustangs, brings experience from her time at the University of Delaware and as a player at Duke University. She is supported by Assistant Coach Kyler Greenwalt, a former University of Maryland player with extensive Final Four experience, and Goalkeeping Specialist Jen Anderson, a seasoned international player.
