Karen Lynch, the 1984 CUNY Conference Basketball Coach of the Year at the College of Staten Island, won four city championships, three Metro Bowls, and 77 percent of her games – including a 26-0 season in 1996 – in 12 seasons as the softball coach at Port Richmond High School, where she also coached wide receivers and running backs for the football team.
A two-sport athlete, Lynch still holds the single-season record for assists at Wagner College, and was a softball star for the Seahawks and the fast-pitch Staten Island Saints, and a modified-pitch All-American and three-time national champion with Alibi Inn.
