TSI Takes a Big Step
Introducing Our New Director of Softball Operations
Michele Hawkins McHenry
Exciting News for the Fastpitch Softball Community
The first big news is that Tuckahoe Sports (TSI) is proud to announce the hiring of Michele Hawkins McHenry to take the helm of our College Development softball program beginning with the 2019-2020 season.
Michele brings over 17 years of collegiate coaching experience, most recently with Towson University. She also has an extensive personal history of softball accomplishment across numerous professional teams in the WPSL, WPF, and the European League. She played college softball at Northwestern University where she holds numerous records.
Michele is well connected and understands the recruiting process and has the contacts needed within the industry to work with student-athletes who dream of playing college softball.
I’m thrilled to join the TSI team as the Director of Softball Operations. My life has been greatly enhanced by the sport and I am excited to use my knowledge and experience to grow the program at TSI.

Michele will be onsite mid-June and will have a series of events that will allow her to meet with members of the Lady Titans teams, prospective players, and the entire softball community. She will also be conducting our softball tryouts to be held at TSI on July 27 and July 28.
Don’t miss this opportunity to meet and work with Michele!
Introducing Mid-Atlantic Orioles Softball
The second piece of big news is that TSI is rolling out the new Mid-Atlantic Orioles Softball brand for our 14U and 16U College Development softball teams previously playing as Lady Titans. The Orioles brand, spearheaded by Chris McKnight, former MLB Associate Scout and NCAA Collegiate Coach, has already achieved baseball success in the region.
For example, our 2019 Mid-Atlantic Orioles team had 15 commits for college baseball. Michele brings that same level of expertise to take softball players to the next level of collegiate play.
Since joining TSI last year, I realized that our softball program had room to grow, we just needed to expand our leadership in order to foster that growth. Michele is a great fit.
The focus she will bring to our older teams will take them to the next level and also expand TSI’s reach in the Regional Softball Community.
I also want to recognize Theresa Caraher, who has served in this role for the past few years. Theresa has had a huge impact on our girls and will continue to be an integral part of our program. This hire allows us to add depth to our program!
– Lesa Williams, Executive Director, TSI
TSI is excited to begin this next chapter to reinforce our commitment to sharing the best training and facility with those student-athletes who desire to reach the highest levels of softball and baseball.
Come check us out at the upcoming tryouts near Richmond, and thank you for welcoming Michele Hawkins McHenry to our region and to the TSI team!
