Profile

A 2001 All-American at Wheaton, Jill D'Arcy returns for her third year as an assistant and for a second season in her second stint on the staff.

D'Arcy also assisted the program in 2004, when the Lyons tied for fifth at the NCAA Tournament College World Series after winning New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) regular season and tournament titles. D'Arcy was the varsity assistant coach at nearby Walpole High School in 2005 and 2006 after serving as the junior varsity head coach in 2002 and 2003.

As a player, D'Arcy was a two-time captain and a four-year starter at second base for Wheaton, being named to the National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) All-America first team as a senior in 2001 and landing on the NFCA and New England Intercollegiate Softball Coaches Association (NEISCA) All-New England first team three times each. She also twice earned Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) honors and was tabbed a NEWMAC All-Conference selection in 1999.

During her senior year, D'Arcy helped the Lyons take third at the NCAA College World Series after winning the second NEWMAC Tournament title of her career. She graduated among the top 10 in program history in 15 career and season categories, including holding the records for career and season sacrifice hits. D'Arcy left as one of seven Wheaton players to ever record 200 hits and finished out her 185-game career just five stolen bases shy of 100.

D'Arcy graduated from Wheaton with a degree in psychology before earning a master's degree from Bridgewater State College in special education with a concentration in moderate special needs in 2006.
