Chan Walker

Biography

Chan Walker returned to FAU in January 2006 after a four-year hiatus. Walker was an instrumental part of building the program as both a player (1995-96) and assistant coach (1998-2001). Her versatility and willingness to help anyone is a true asset to Coach Joyce and to any student-athlete who has the pleasure of working with her. In 2002 she served as American Heritage High School's assistant coach, ran clinics, camps and conducted private lessons. She served as fellow FAU alumnus Amy Alderman's assistant coach at Lynn University from 2002-2004, while also working in public child care. Her return to FAU and to college coaching brings back someone who knows the ins and outs of college athletics and the Owls. She will primarily focus on the hitters and outfielders, as well as handle the responsibilities of equipment, travel and administrative tasks. She brings to the program an awareness of the fielding techniques needed to be a successful softball outfielder.
