Mary Seiffert is in her first season at Indiana as assistant coach in 2025.
Seiffert joined Coach Rife’s staff at Indiana after three seasons at Ball State. She worked with field players during training with full group and small group and individual sessions. She also prepared scouting reports, additional game prep including film review and was active in recruiting.
Seiffert joined the Ball State coaching staff after spending five seasons at Indiana Wesleyan. During her time with the Wildcats, she helped guide the squad to a Crossroads League regular season title, a Crossroads League tournament champion title, and four National Tournament appearances in four years, including an Elite Eight finish in 2019. Seiffert was a part of the USC Regional Staff of the Year that same year.
Prior to her time at IWU, she spent time at Denison University and Olivet Nazarene University. While at Denison, the team made it back to the NCAA National Tournament for the first time in five years. At ONU, she aided in CCAC regular season and tournament titles in 2011. In a combined four seasons at ONU, she won the NCCAA National Tournament, was a runner-up in the NCCAA National Tournament, and made the NAIA National Tournament twice in her last two years.
The Grand Haven, Michigan, native played four years at Cornerstone University from 2004-07. During her time, she was a four-year starter and two-year captain and helped CU win its first WHAC tournament title in 2004, its first WHAC regular season title in 2006 and its first ever NAIA Region Championship and National Tournament appearance in 2007. She was a three-time All-WHAC selection, a two-time All-Region selection, and a two-time NAIA Scholar Athlete. When she graduated, she was the sixth all-time leading scorer, and she still sits at third in career assists and sixth in career points. She won CU’s Outstanding Female Athlete Award in 2006. In 2015, she was inducted into the Cornerstone Hall of Fame.
Seiffert currently holds her US Soccer Federation (USSF) A-Senior coaching license and has been a part of the US Soccer SHEChampions program in 2023 and 2024.
