Girls Lacrosse

Oak Hills High School is proud to announce Rachel Winkler, Class of 2020, to join the girl’s lacrosse program as our next head coach.  With nearly a decade of playing experience and three years of coaching under her belt, she brings a deep passion for the game and an unwavering commitment to developing young athletes both on and off the field.

A former defensive standout at Oak Hills and Mount St. Joseph University, she played NCAA Division III women’s lacrosse for five seasons, serving as a four-year team captain—a rare and notable achievement. Her leadership, competitive spirit, and dedication made her a respected figure among her teammates and coaches alike.

Beyond her collegiate career, she continues to invest in the growth of the sport through coaching roles with the Headlines Lacrosse Club during the summer and fall seasons. Her coaching philosophy centers on collaboration, accountability, and resilience, values she strives to instill in the next generation of Highlander athletes.

A graduate of Mount St. Joseph University with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a minor in biology, she is currently pursuing a master’s degree in secondary education at Xavier University, with a focus in life sciences. She aspires to become a high school biology teacher and is a vocal advocate for women in STEM, dedicated to supporting young women as they explore careers in science.

In her free time, she enjoys spending time outdoors and reconnecting with former teammates from both high school and college, continuing to strengthen the bonds that sports have helped her build throughout her life.

Oak Hills is thrilled to welcome back one of its own, whose dedication to student-athlete development, women’s sports, and education will no doubt make a lasting impact on the program and the community.

 Olivia Lang is a 2020 Oak Hills alum. She was instrumental in bringing girl's lacrosse to Oak Hills School. She was a four-year varsity captain with the program. She is excited to bring her knowledge and love for the sport as she coaches at her alma mater.

 Coach Lang attended the University of Cincinnati and graduated in 2023 with Bachelor’s degrees in Mathematics - Statistics and Criminal Justice. Coach Lang works as a Compensation Analyst for Cintas and currently resides in Delhi. In her free time, she enjoys spending time around Cincinnati with her family and watching sports games with her friends. She also likes to explore nature with her dog, Poppy and try new foods with her boyfriend, Josh.

 Coach Lang is dedicated to building our Oak Hills women into strong athletes, compassionate teammates, and hard workers both on and off the field. Her goal for the program is to strengthen collaboration, teamwork, drive, and dedication of the coaches, athletes, and the community. Coach Lang pushes her athletes to be better versions of themselves on and off the field, while fostering a winning culture for the program.
