Assistant
Coach Tanya Tanhehco
Former Ohio Wesleyan University (OWU) standout Tanya Tanhehco starts her second season as a Quakers' assistant. The 2000 graduate helps with all facets of the team, including instruction, recruiting and off-season conditioning.
Tanhehco was a four-year letter winner and
three-time all-conference player for the Battling Bishops. She graduated ranked
third on Ohio Wesleyan's career goals list (117) and fourth in career points
(142).
The
Battling Bishops compiled a 32-27 overall record and made two North Coast
Athletic Conference (NCAC) Tournament semifinal appearances in her four seasons.
Her finest year came as a junior when she earned first-team All-NCAC honors at
attack after scoring a team-high 37 goals and eight assists.
Tanhehco's strong play in 1999 earned preseason All-America recognition as a senior. She suffered a career-ending knee injury and missed her last six games in 2000, but still finished second on the club with 32 points (29g, 3a). Tanhehco earned honorable mention All-NCAC honors and ranked fifth among the conference's goals per game leaders. She was a second team all-league performer as a sophomore.
A Williamsville, NY, native, Tanhehco earned All-Western New York lacrosse honors for Nichols High School in 1996. She resides in Greensboro.
