After wrapping up her successful playing career at St. Joseph’s, Chloe Welch stepped into the position of graduate manager for the 2024-25 basketball season, writes Mia Messina for The Philadelphia Inquirer.
“I’ve always been ready and willing to learn, and I think that these opportunities are really awesome,” said Welch. “Even if it’s a task I don’t really understand, I know that I can if I put my mind to it, and it’s an opportunity to learn and acquire a new skill. So it’s really exciting for me.”
Welch spent her first four collegiate years at Davidson. For her final season, she was in talks to transfer to St. Joe’s, a move solidified by the potential to transition into a coaching role.
“That was always the plan, and then once I finished playing last year, we readdressed it, and they asked again if I was interested, and I still was,” said Welch.
Her new role involves a variety of tasks, including cutting film from games and practices, participating in games as a practice player, and assisting with workouts. She also helps with keeping recruiting information organized and builds class schedules for players and managers.
