In her first season in the new role, Cooper was a vital piece to the Seminoles' success in the 2023 season. Under Cooper, the Seminoles posted a 58-11 record and were National Runner-Ups at the Women's College World Series. The Seminoles also won another ACC Regular Season Championship after going 19-2 in conference play and won their second-straight ACC Tournament Championship.

Cooper was a member of the Seminoles from 2014-17 and was on staff as a Student Assistant during the Seminoles’ 2018 National Championship run.
