Sarah Shute, who starred at Boston University as a three-time first-team regional All-American, was promoted to associate head coach in the spring of 2014 after four seasons as an assistant coach for the Terriers.

Shute, who graduated in 2008 following a senior campaign in which she helped the Terriers reach the NCAA quarterfinals, finished her career with 45 goals - third most all-time at BU - and her 107 points place her fourth in school history. She broke the program record for career games played with 87, thanks to helping the Terriers earn back-to-back-to-back America East titles her final three seasons (2005, 2006, 2007). BU advanced to the NCAA tournament in each of those years, culminating with the program's first appearance in the quarterfinals since 1991 thanks to an overtime win over Big Ten champion Iowa.

One of just five Terriers to be named to the All-Region First Team three times, Shute also was selected to the America East All-Conference First Team in each of those three seasons in addition to earning All-ECAC honors her senior year.

Shute played in the 2007 NFHCA Division I Senior All-Star Game and also received America East Academic Honor Roll Recognition three consecutive years. She trained with the USA 'B' Team during the summer of 2008 and played in international matches against Japan and Canada.

Shute earned her undergraduate degree from BU's School of Hospitality Administration in 2008 and finished a master's degree in the School of Education in 2017 with a concentration in physical education and coaching.
