PHILADELPHIA – The University of Pennsylvania's Douglas N. Brush Head Coach of Women's Soccer, Casey Brown, has announced the hiring of Rose Hull as an assistant coach.
 
Hull comes to Penn after serving as an assistant coach with the Nebraska Wesleyan University women's soccer program last year.
 
"I could not be more excited to have Rose join our Penn Women's Soccer family," said Brown, who was hired in March and enters her first full year overseeing the Quakers' program in 2020-21. "In getting to know her through the process, it was immediately clear what a positive and infectious leader she is and how much she will help grow our program. The experiences Rose has had as a standout student-athlete, to her college coaching experiences and work within higher education, make her a perfect fit for our program's ambitions and the overall culture we are looking to foster. I feel so honored to welcome Rose to the staff and the entire Penn Athletics community."
 
In addition to her stint at Wesleyan, Hull has collegiate soccer coaching experience as an assistant goalkeeper coach at the University of Nebraska-Omaha in 2018. Prior to UNO, she was the assistant coach for the 2017 season at her alma mater, Furman University, guiding the Paladins' keeper to first-team all-conference recognition and a conference-record 0.67 goals-against average as they won the Southern Conference regular-season title.

Hull was a two-time women's soccer captain at Furman, playing from 2012-16 and leading the NCAA in save percentage (.919) her sophomore season. She was a three-time All-Southern Conference honoree and member of two SoCon championship teams, posting a 49-14-6 career record with 21 solo shutouts between the pipes for the Paladins.
 
Following her collegiate career, Hull played three seasons in the W-League, two with the Carolina Elite Cobras and one with Seattle Sounders Women. In 2013, she was nominated for Goalkeeper of the Year across the W-League.

A native of Brentwood, Tenn., Hull earned her bachelors' degree in psychology from Furman in 2016 and was a five-time Southern Conference Academic Honor Roll honoree. She recently completed her Masters in Intercollegiate Athletic Administration at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where she also worked as a graduate assistant for the Life Skills program in the Huskers' Athletics Department.
