Susan Kocher finished her 11th season as head coach of the Huskies in 2021 after being named the head coach in July of 2010. In Kocher's first nine seasons as head coach, she has guided the Huskies to an overall record of 305-170, nine PSAC tournament appearances, and six NCAA playoff berths. She has also earned a pair of PSAC Central Division Coach of the Year honors, winning the award in both 2016 and 2019.

Before taking over as head coach, Kocher played four seasons for the Huskies from 1984-87 and then stayed with the program, serving as an assistant coach under the legendary Jan Hutchinson for 23 seasons until taking over the reins following Hutchinson's retirement after the 2010 campaign. In her 37 seasons with the program, Kocher has been a part of 1,392 victories (142 as a player, 962 as an assistant coach, and 288 as head coach) and 33 NCAA postseason berths.

A 1987 graduate of Bloomsburg University, Kocher was inducted into the Bloomsburg Athletic Hall of Fame in 1999.
