Lindsay Mayer is entering her fourth season as head coach at Caldwell University. Mayer came to Caldwell in 2023 following stints as head coach at Arcadia (Pa.) University and assistant at Division I College of the Holy Cross, Hofstra University and Wagner College.

Under Mayer's tutelage, Caldwell returned to the NCAA East Regional, winning the CACC Regular Season Championship with a 15-3 mark in league play. She coached the CACC Pitcher of the Year in Haleigh Fisher and had eight team members selected to the CACC All-Conference team as well as numerous CACC All-Academic, CSC Academic All-District and two CACC Student-Athletes of the Month in Fisher and Katie O'Connor.

In her first year in 2024, Mayer led the Cougars to a 25-22 record and berth in the CACC Tournament. Caldwell ranked 27th in the nation in batting (.326) while two players placed in the top 40 in batting (Grace Vondracek, 2nd, .493; Ashleigh Tavaska, 39th, .430).

In 2025, the Cougars won 24 of their last 38 games, and had two All-American honorees in Vondracek (D2CCA Second Team) and Tavaska (NFCA Third Team), 18 Easton/NFCA All-America Scholar-Athletes, three All-East Region performers and the CACC Player of the Year (Tavaska).

A 2017 graduate of Fordham University, Mayer was a two-time NFCA Third Team All-Region selection, Atlantic-10 Player of the Year, Two-Time All-A-10, and a CoSIDA Academic All-American for the Rams after a year at the University of Virginia.

The Lincoln, R.I., native was a two-time Rhode Island Gatorade Player of the Year in 2012 and 2013 at Lincoln H.S. In addition to a communications degree from Fordham, she earned her Master’s from Hofstra in 2019.
