Jeanne Rayman Tabbed As Permanent Butler Softball Coach
Nov. 7, 2006 Butler director of athletics Barry Collier has announced that Jeanne Rayman will serve as Butler University's permanent head softball coach, ending her brief stint as interim head coach. Rayman, a former softball player and assistant coach at Butler, previously accepted the interim softball coach position at Butler in September. Rayman has been handling two jobs for the past six weeks. In addition to serving as Butler's interim softball coach, she has been attending to the duties of her own private business. She's been able to effectively manage both positions, allowing her to commit to continuing as Butler's coach. "Jeanne has made the successful transition out of the prior commitments in her private business, and having done so, we're excited to announce the removal of the interim title," said Collier. Rayman (then Jeanne Stephens) was a four-year starter at third base for the Bulldogs under head coach Barb Greenburg. She was a four-year, all-conference performer and a two-time Butler Most Valuable Player. She was Butler's leading hitter in 1989 and 1990, and she held Butler single season records for doubles, home runs and runs batted when she completed her senior season. She also holds the unique distinction of having hit two grand slam home runs in the same game in 1990! Rayman served as a volunteer assistant coach at Butler, 2002-04, and as a full-time assistant coach for the Bulldogs, 2004-05. The Butler softball coach earned her degree in public and corporate communications from Butler in 1990. She and her husband, Jeff, reside in Carmel.
