Roberts joins Stonehill's women's swimming as an assistant coach in April of 2025, the newest addition to head coach Matthew Distler's staff.

Roberts is a graduate of Merrimack College's Women's Swim Team, where she competed in backstroke, butterfly, and the occasional freestyle. During her time at Merrimack, she contributed to many top-five regular-season meet finishes in the 100-yard backstroke, 200-yard backstroke, and 100-yard butterfly, including many first and second-place finishes. Through the 2017-2019 seasons, Roberts qualified for finals at every end-of-season Championship meet in backstroke and/or butterfly. Her senior season, 2020-2021, ended early due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and she opted to be a remote learner, cutting her collegiate swimming career short.

Before Merrimack, Roberts competed in the AAU Junior Olympics each summer from 2015-2017 where she placed 2nd in the 100yd backstroke and 3rd in the 100yd butterfly as a sophomore. As a member of the Marshfield High School Swim Team, she brought home a 9th place finish at the State Championship Meet in the 100yd backstroke in 2016. She was also named a Varsity Team All-Star for Marshfield High School in 2016 and 2017, as well as contributing to the 200 Medley, 400 Medley, and 200 Freestyle Relay team records, and adding on a 2nd place finish in the 200 Medley Relay at the State Championship Meet in 2017.

Roberts comes to Stonehill with years of coaching experience at the club and high school level, coaching for Sailfish Swim Team for over five years, while being an assistant coach of the Marshfield/Hanover High School Swim Team for their 2021-2022 season. Roberts graduated from Merrimack College in 2021 with a degree in Communications and Media and a double minor in Sports Management and Religious and Theological Studies.

Roberts is thrilled to be joining this already flourishing program and hopes to serve as a role model to these young student-athletes. She is excited to work alongside Head Coach Distler and is extremely grateful for this opportunity. Go Hill!
