Kelly Greenberg was forced to resign as head coach at Boston University in 2014 amid multiple charges of abusing players, ending her coaching career. Allegations that she mistreated players first surfaced in 2007 when the coach admitted she made some serious mistakes that she deeply regretted. When four players left the team in 2014, an internal investigation concluded that "the manner in which Coach Greenberg interacted with many of her players was incompatible with the expectations and standards for university employees, including our coaches."
Greenberg played basketball, field hockey, and softball at Archbishop Wood High School in Philadelphia. Her No. 32 jersey was retired, joining just three other female athletes: former WNBA player Debbie Black, Kathy May Greenberg, Kelly's sister, and Joanne Healy. Kelly is a member of the high school's alumni hall of fame.[ citation needed ]
