A standout goalkeeper and then assistant coach for the Golden Bears, Kelly Knapp joins Team USA in Rio as a manager for the field hockey squad. Knapp's career as a student-athlete in Berkeley was replete with honors, including the NorPac Defensive Player of the Year award in 2004, when she led all Division I goalkeepers with 1591:51 minutes played. Her goals-against average led the NorPac Conference for three straight seasons (2002-04), and Knapp played every minute of every game during those three seasons. She graduated from Cal in 2005 with a degree in sociology and served as the head coach of Westview High School in San Diego, Calif. before returning to Berkeley as a coach.
