After a successful career on the field, Centenary University women’s soccer alum Jill Pullis has been named an assistant coach for head coach Kevin Davies and the women’s soccer program.
“We are very fortunate to have Jill join the staff,” said Davies. “She is a student of the game and very knowledgeable. She was well respected when she was player and is mature enough to now make the separation from player to coach. Her experience with The USL team will also help our program.”
Pullis was a member of the Centenary squad from 2019 through this past fall. The central midfielder started all 33 games she appeared in for the Cyclones. She finished with nine goals and nine assists for 27 points in her two seasons (2020 campaign was canceled due to Covid-19). Pullis earned Second Team All-Colonial States Athletic Conference (CSAC) accolades in 2019.
Off the field, she was a success in the classroom as well. She earned First Team All-District accolades from CoSIDA and was a member of the Dean's List.
Prior to coming to Centenary, Pullis was a standout at Sussex Community College where she broke the school record for season and career assists.
In February, Pullis signed a contract with Morris Elite SC.
