Jean Rettig
	Position: Graduate Assistant Experience: 4th Season Alma Mater: Penn State (2008)

Jean Rettig returns for her fourth season as a graduate assistant with the Seminole soccer program after spending five seasons as a student-athlete at Penn State University. In her first three seasons at Florida State, Rettig assisted with organizing team practices and helped coordinate team travel. She also served as an instructor at the Mark Krikorian Soccer Academy while helping in the day-to-day planning of the Seminole Soccer camps. Rettig earned a master's degree in Sport Psychology at Florida State following the spring of 2010 and is currently working on a doctorial degree in Higher Education.

Before arriving in Tallahassee, Rettig served as an assistant coach with Central Penn United, a U-14 girls squad. She also had the opportunity to serve as head coach of a U-10 girls summer academy team which is affiliated with the Harrisburg City Islanders of the United Soccer League (USL-2) Second Division.

With the Nittany Lions, Rettig was a three-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree (2004, 2005 and 2006) and was part of five Big Ten regular season championships (2003-07). Over her career, Rettig played in 62 games making 34 starts. She amassed 18 career points on four goals and 10 assists. The Harrisburg, Pa., native helped Penn State to a College Cup appearance in 2005 as well as the school's first ever No. 1 national ranking. In the 2005 NCAA Tournament, Rettig posted goals in her first two postseason games as Penn State registered victories over Bucknell and West Virginia. That year the Nittany Lions would go on to set a team-record for the most postseason goals with 17.

Rettig began her college career at Penn State in 2003 seeing action in 11 games. The next two seasons were mirror images of each other as Rettig posted two goals and four assists as a sophomore and a junior. In 2004, she tallied a career-high three points on a goal and an assist as Penn State defeated Binghamton in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament. Rettig went on to tally a season-high seven shots in a win over Indiana that season while recording the game-winning assist against the Golden Gophers.

After starting the first three games in 2006, which included a game-tying assist against UCLA to open the season, Rettig sustained a season-ending injury at Texas. Her final two seasons as a Nittany Lion would be cut short due to injury. In 2007, she was named tri-captain at Penn State.

Over her last four years in University Park, Rettig worked soccer camps at PSU while staying active in her hometown of Harrisburg organizing summer leagues for both college and high school players. She is one of four children. Her sister Molly played soccer at the University of Richmond. In 2007, Rettig earned a bachelor's degree in psychology with a minor in business at Penn State.
