For the first time in the storied history of Harvard athletics, a
women's head coaching position has been endowed, thanks to the
extraordinary generosity of University alumni.
Indeed, Harvard today announced its first two endowments.
RoAnn Costin '74, a former All-America swimmer and rower for the Crimson, has established the Costin Family Endowed Coach for Women's Swimming and Diving. The gift, the first women's coaching endowment in Harvard history, is in memory of her mother, Rosemary Cole Costin, and in honor of her sister, Maura Costin Scalise '80. Scalise, an All-America swimmer and former Harvard women's swimming and diving head coach, guided her teams to four Eastern Championship and seven Ivy League Championship crowns during an illustrious 13-year career.
