Who's Joining Wake Forest's Takeover on WSJS
Eight-time ACC coach of the year Jen Averill begins her 33rd season with the field hockey program this upcoming fall. During her time as head coach, the program has been selected to the national tournament 18 times, as well as three consecutive NCAA Championship titles in the early 2000s. Averill and her team will look to start the season off strong in their first match of the season on the road against the University of Iowa Hawkeyes.
Hailing from northern Virginia, guard Alyssa Andrews enters her senior year with the Deacons women's basketball team for the upcoming 2025 season. During her junior year, she was one of six players to play in all 32 games and ranked third on the team in rebounds per game.
Rounding out the takeover hour is redshirt junior from College Park, Texas, Dylan Hazen. The Deacons linebacker ranked 10th in the ACC for total tackles during the 2023 season, recording five or more tackles in 10 games.
John Currie is entering his fifth year at the helm of the Deacons athletic program, and 14th year as a power five athletic director. Having served as athletic directors for both Kansas State and Tennessee, John boasts over 30 years of combined experience in the ACC, Big 12, and SEC.
