On any given day, one of the first people Hurricanes football coach Mark Richt may encounter when he arrives for work at the Hecht Athletic Center is Sebrina Beyer, his assistant and the gatekeeper of his office.
During that same day, Richt may stop for a quick chat in the hallway with Shirelle Jackson, one of the people that helped Miami finish last semester as the FBS team with the most community service hours performed. When he strides onto the field for practice, he’ll likely cross paths with Arielle Scavo, the student equipment manager who helped his players prepare for that morning’s workout. And before the day ends, there may well be a meeting with Jennifer Strawley, the administrator who oversees the Hurricanes’ football program and was one of the decision-makers who helped bring Richt to Miami.
Though the players and coaches fans will see on the field at Hard Rock Stadium this fall are all men, there is no doubt that in Coral Gables, women have their fingerprints all over the Hurricanes program.
