She joined the Musketeers after serving as head coach at Hartford from 2016-21.

Decker, a two-time All-BIG EAST Conference selection as a player, is certainly no stranger to the league or when it comes to building collegiate women’s lacrosse programs. She built the program from the ground up at Hartford. She helped build Virginia Commonwealth University’s women’s lacrosse program from scratch as an assistant coach, and was a student-athlete on the inaugural women’s lacrosse team at the United States Naval Academy.

Academic success has gone hand-in-hand with improved play on the field during Decker’s head coaching career. The Hartford women’s lacrosse team landed almost 90 percent of its roster on the America East Honor Roll the past two seasons and nearly 75 percent of the roster earned Commissioner’s Honor Roll distinction for achieving a grade point average of 3.5 or higher. During that same period the offensive possession time doubled over the past two full seasons, 2019 and 2021, from 11 minutes to 22 minutes, the team increased its offensive possessions by 50 percent and doubled their goals per game.

In addition to Hartford from 2016-21 and VCU from 2014-16, Decker has coaching experience as the head coach of the Flash Club Women's Lacrosse in Tustin, Calif., and as the director of the Whirlwind Lacrosse Tournament in Newport Beach, Calif. Additionally, Decker is the New England Director for Trilogy's middle school Leadership and Lacrosse camp.

Outside of coaching, Decker served as a multi-year Committee Member and later became Committee Chair for the Intercollegiate Women’s Lacrosse Association Convention Planning Committee, planning and leading the annual event for all collegiate women’s lacrosse coaches. She also served on the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee for the University of Hartford Department of Athletics. Additionally, Decker was a contributing member of the America East Working Group considering how to best support the mental health of student-athletes through balancing their time obligations in academics and sport.

A native of Baltimore, Md., Decker enjoyed a standout collegiate career as the Division I Rookie of the Year at Navy (2008) and a BIG EAST standout at Loyola (2010-2011), having sat out the 2009 season to satisfy transfer rules. She helped lead Loyola to a school-record 17 wins, the 2011 BIG EAST Championship and an NCAA Quarterfinal appearance in her final season. Decker finished her career with 113 goals and 154 draw controls as a collegian.
