Kourtney Kennedy embarks on her third season with the Providence College field hockey program as an assistant coach in 2025. 
 
Prior to her arrival at Providence, she spent the 2022 season as an assistant coach at Sacred Heart, following an impressive playing career at UConn. The Watertown, Massachusetts native anchored the Huskies' defense and earned NFHCA Mideast Region First Team, All-BIG EAST First Team and BIG EAST All-Tournament Team honors during her career. 
 
In 97 career games, Kennedy notched 10 goals and seven assists, while guiding her team to four-consecutive BIG EAST regular-season titles, four-straight BIG EAST Tournament titles and four NCAA Tournament appearances. Kennedy was part of the Huskies' perfect season in 2017 during which the program won its fifth NCAA National Championship and finished the year 23-0.

During her tenure at Sacred Heart, Kennedy was responsible for the Pioneers' defense, practice planning and recruiting, in addition to the day-to-day operations of the program.
 
Kennedy graduated from UConn in 2021 with a bachelor's degree in sport management. She earned a master of science in sport management in 2022.
