A 2003 graduate of Winthrop, Lampman joins Radford after spending the past two seasons as a volunteer assistant coach at her alma mater. While with the Lady Eagles, she worked closely with the hitters and catchers.

Lampman’s duties with the Highlanders will include hitting and on-field instruction with the emphasis on catchers, corner infielders and outfielders.

"I am pleased and excited to have Katy as part of our staff," stated Dean. "She not only brings a great deal of experience in the game, she understands the Big South and what we’re trying to accomplish at Radford. Katy is a great addition to Highlander softball and what we are trying to achieve here."

Along with coaching, Lampman has been providing private lessons that keyed on pitching, catching and hitting, while working several camps at Winthrop, University of Georgia and in Canada over the past five years. In 2007, she founded the Superior Softball School in Concord, N.C. which offers individual instruction and clinics in all the areas of softball.

"I’m very excited to work for Mickey Dean and with the Radford softball program," said Lampman. "I’ve known Mickey for several years in the coaching circles and it is a privilege to finally work with and learn from him. I can’t wait to get started and help Radford be a dominant force in the Big South."

Lampman (formerly Katy Agee) was a three-year starting catcher for the Lady Eagles (2001-03). A 2002 Big South All-Tournament selection, Lampman helped Winthrop to a pair of Big South Championship game appearances in 2001 and 2002.
