Coach Alie Wickersheim

As a native of Maywood NJ, I graduated from Hackensack High School in 2016 where I was a four year varsity athlete and led the state in blocked shots during both my junior and senior years. I am a graduate of Ramapo College of New Jersey, where I completed my undergraduate degree in Elementary Education in 2021 and am currently working towards completing my master’s degree in Special Education. During the school year, I work as a 7th and 8th grade English Language Arts teacher in Saddle Brook.

As a member of Ramapo College’s women’s basketball team, I was named New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC) Co-Defensive Player of the Year, NJAC Player of the Week and co-captain of my team. Over the course of my playing career, I prided myself on being a defensive minded player and as a result I finished 4th in career blocked shots and 8th in career rebounds in Ramapo College Women’s Basketball History. In addition to Crush, I have returned to Ramapo College as one of the assistant coaches for the women’s basketball program. I’m so excited to be apart of the Crush family and am looking forward to a great season ahead!
