After more than ten years with Virginia Polo, as both a player and coach, Jessica Schmitt is moving on to new things.
Jess first came to us as a player on our High School team before starting at UVA. She later played on the Intercollegiate National Team in 2017 and the Runners-up in 2018. In 2018 she was also named the Daniel J. Wallace, Jr. Intercollegiate Female Player of the Year. After graduating from UVA, she stayed on with us as Barn Manager and Assistant Coach for three years and coached the Virginia Juniors youth team.
We wish Jess the best of luck and will miss her terribly! We are still hiring her replacement (who will have big shoes to fill). For information about the job opening, click here.
