Coaches & Staff

Coach Woodman

Head Coach

Five years with the same core group — team first, family always.

  • Head Coach, West Cobb Crush — five years with the same core group
  • Head Coach, Hillgrove Hawks Silver — two seasons
  • Head Coach, Hillgrove Hawks Gold — one season
  • Board roles supporting West Cobb Girls Softball and the Hillgrove Hawks
  • Owner/CEO, New Image Roofs, LLC — BBB-accredited (A+), founded 2016, Marietta & Dallas, GA
  • One of four partners with Marty Leddy, Tommy Cousens, and Chip Phillips — all four grew up in West Cobb

Coach Woodman has led the Crush for five years — the same core group of girls, the same coach, the whole way through. Off the field, he has built New Image Roofs into a respected West Cobb business, and he has supported his community in board roles with both West Cobb Girls Softball and the Hillgrove Hawks — putting his time back into the same community and programs that raised him. With the steady support of his wife Lucy behind everything he takes on, five years running the same program says something on its own: most travel coaches don't get, or keep, that kind of continuity. He built a business from the ground up and built it well, and he runs the Crush with the same hands-on, long-game mindset — invest in the people in front of you, show up consistently, and the results follow. For him this isn't just a program he leads; this is a team and a family that he is invested in.

Coach Sara “Po” Poteat French

Assistant Coach

Former NCAA Division I infielder, UT Chattanooga

  • Three-time All-Southern Conference selection (2011, 2012, 2013)
  • 2011 SoCon Tournament Most Outstanding Player
  • Two-time NFCA All-South Region honoree (2011, 2012)
  • Career .300+ hitter across three straight seasons, peaking at .437 as a junior
  • 2012 FCA Scholarship Award recipient

Coach Po brings something most 12U travel teams don't have: real Division I playing experience, still active in her own game today. She spent four years as an infielder for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (2010–2013) — the kind of résumé that turns “listen to your coach” into “your coach has actually done it.” She coaches like she still plays, pairing relentless competitiveness with detail-level teaching: not just what went wrong, but why, and what a Division I infielder would adjust before the next pitch. High standards, genuine warmth, and real joy for the game.

Coach Philip Mathews

Coach, West Cobb Crush 2032

With the Crush since day one — lineup, gear, and a calm dugout.

  • With West Cobb Crush since the program's founding — one of the team's original coaches
  • Five-plus years with the same core group
  • Manages lineups, equipment, and dugout leadership on tournament days

Coach Mathews has been with the Crush since day one — not a coach who joined once the program had already found its footing, but one of the people who built that footing in the first place. Five-plus years in, he's still the guy doing the unglamorous, essential work that keeps a travel team actually running: setting the lineup, managing every piece of equipment, and keeping eleven girls focused and locked in from the first pitch to the last out of a long tournament day. Running a dugout for eleven pre-teen girls during a tournament is its own kind of leadership test. Coach Mathews manages the lineup, the gear, and the chaos of the dugout with real composure — the girls feel the calm even when the moment isn't calm at all. Parents notice it too: he does the job with genuine class, never cutting corners and never losing his patience, which is exactly the kind of steady hand a program needs from the coach who's been there since the very beginning.
