Episode 15: Liz Keady Norton
This week's episode features Liz Keady Norton, the Associate Head Coach of the Boston University Women’s Hockey program.
Liz began her coaching career almost a decade ago at Andover High School. She then entered the division 1 coaching ranks, with stints as an assistant coach at Union College and Harvard University before joining BU in 2017.
Liz is also in her 13th year as the General Manager and Director of Hockey Training at the Institute of Performance & Fitness in Andover Massachusetts where she serves as a strength and conditioning coach, developing sport-specific training programs for hockey athletes.
A native of Braintree, Massachusetts, Keady Norton graduated from Princeton in 2008. She was named the Tigers' team MVP and Most Improved Player following the 2004-05 season, scoring a career-high 15 goals. That same season, she earned All-ECAC Hockey Honorable Mention and All-Ivy Second Team accolades as well.
Keady has also spent time with the U.S. National Team, as she appeared in 16 games during the team's 2005 Pre-Olympic Tour.
Liz is a former university teammate of mine, who possesses an incredible work ethic and a strong passion for the game of hockey that has stayed consistent in her transition from playing to coaching.
In our conversation, we cover several topics, including:
The transition from playing to coaching
Simultaneously navigating the roles of mother and coach
Coaching through COVID
Mentors that have impacted her coaching journey
Her most memorable coaching moment to date
