East Stroudsburg University has introduced a 12-part webinar series entitled, “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in College Athletics: A Call to Action”.

The monthly speakers’ series, which began on March 2021, will run through February 2022. ESU Swimming head coach Fan Yang serves as the second guest speaker in the series.

“Coach Yang is a renowned national and international swimmer originally from China, where she had a remarkable amateur and professional swimming career,” said ESU Director of Athletics Gary R. Gray. “She is now an NCAA Division II women’s swimming coach, so I am excited to hear her thoughts on diversity, equity, and inclusion in college athletics. I am sure Coach Yang will give us some important ideas to think about in her presentation.”

A native of China, Yang has served as the head coach of the Warriors’ swim program the last two seasons, boasting a 7-3 record.

Before coming to ESU, Yang worked at Pocono Family YMCA in Stroudsburg. She also served as an assistant coach at Lafayette College (2014-16) for two seasons. Prior to her arrival in Easton, Yang’s coaching positions included stops with the Peak Performance Camp in Seattle and Los Angeles, Easton Aquatic Swimming Club and Peak Performance Camp in Beijing, China.
