Jamie Stanclift was named the head softball coach in July of 2019. She enters her third season as the head softball coach in 2022. She is 34-27 through her first two seasons with the Bulldogs, with a 16-10 record in league play. Stanclift joined the Wingate coaching staff after a succesful career at Baker University. She is 212-162 in her head coaching career.
The 2021 season saw the Bulldogs go 21-18 overall and 14-10 in the SAC. The Bulldogs had SAC Freshman of the Year Heaven Maness, who also earned All-SAC and All-Region accolades while being named the Wingate University Freshman Female Athlete of the Year.
In her first season as head coach in 2020, the Bulldogs went 13-9 in the shortened year, with a 2-0 record in league play before the season was cut short in March due to COVID.
Stanclift was named the head coach at Baker University in 2014 after spending one year as Baker’s Graduate Assistant Coach. As the head coach, Stanclift has guided the Wildcats to back-to-back seasons with over 40 wins. Stanclift led Baker to the first NAIA National Tournament in program history in 2018, while the Wildcats were ranked as high as 12th nationally during the 2019 season, finishing the year 49-7 overall while winning the Heart of America Athletic Conference regular season and tournament champions.
“I feel extremely blessed to have the opportunity to lead the Wingate University softball program forward to continued success,” Stanclift says. “From the moment I stepped on campus and visited with administration I could feel what a special place Wingate is. I thank Steve Poston and Michelle Caddigan and the entire hiring committee for their time spent getting to know me and allowing my passion for the game be shared. Their commitment to excellence in the entire student-athlete experience matches my own and I am excited to put my stamp on the culture of the Bulldog softball program.”
During the historic 2019 season, Baker had the NAIA National Pitcher of the Year, who was also named the CoSIDA NAIA Academic All-America Team Member of the Year for the second straight year. The Wildcats had seven all-conference selections in 2019, with five players earning All-Region accolades while Stanclift was named the league’s Coach of the Year.
“I could not be any more excited to have Coach Stanclift join the Wingate Family,” Wingate University Deputy Director of Athletics and Senior Woman Administrator Michelle Caddigan says. “I have every expectation that the program will achieve a great deal of success on and off the field under her guidance. Her focus on developing our young women into strong leaders who will leave the softball program well prepared for the next phase of their lives will be invaluable.”
Stanclift’s squad has had a team GPA of over 3.5 in each of the last two seasons, being named an NAIA Top 10 Academic Team both years. The team GPA was above 3.35 in all six seasons of Stanclift’s tenure at Baker. The Wildcats earned NAIA Top 10 Academic Team honors in five of Stanclift’s six seasons.
Chaley Brickey joined the Wingate University coaching staff as the Assistant Coach in the summer of 2019. She comes to Wingate after spending a year as the Graduate Assistant Coach at Baker University for current Wingate head coach Jamie Stanclift.

After her successful collegiate playing career, Brickey was the 16th overall pick in the National Professional Fastpitch draft in 2016. She played a season with the Pennsylvania Rebellion, helping the team register its winningest season in program history.
Olivia Brees joined the Wingate coaching staff as a graduate assistant coach in the fall of 2020 after an incredible collegiate career at Baker University, where she played for current Wingate head coach Jamie Stanclift.
One of the most dominant pitchers in NAIA history, Brees was a four-time all-conference and three-time NAIA first team All-American during her Baker career. She got it done on the field and in the classroom, earning first team Academic All-America honors from CoSIDA each of her final two seasons. Brees was named the NAIA Academic All-American of the Year in each of her final two seasons as well. The two-time NFCA and NAIA Scholar-Athlete was named the 2019 NAIA National Pitcher of the Year.
