Message from the Milford Athletics

We are excited to introduce Kimberly Seeney as the new Head Coach of the Milford High School Girls Volleyball Team!

Coach Seeney brings a wealth of experience and passion for the game. She previously coached boys' volleyball at Caesar Rodney High School and travel ball with Premier Volleyball Club. In addition to her coaching background, she works as a paraprofessional at Charlton Elementary, where she is dedicated to making a positive impact in students’ lives.

Volleyball has always been an important part of her life, and she is eager to bring her energy and expertise to Milford. Her coaching philosophy centers on helping athletes grow both on and off the court, while building a strong, supportive, and competitive team culture.

Coach Seeney shares:
“I’m passionate about helping athletes grow — not just as players, but as people. I believe in building a strong, supportive team culture and pushing each other to be our best. I can’t wait to get this season started and see what we can accomplish together!”

Please join us in welcoming Coach Kimberly Seeney to the Milford family!

Message from the Milford Athletics

We are thrilled to announce Coach Haley Pagden as the new Head Coach of Milford High School’s Fall Cheerleading Team!

Coach Pagden is a proud Milford High School alumna and currently serves as a 3rd grade teacher in the Milford School District. Cheerleading has been a lifelong passion of hers, with experience that spans from Pop Warner and All-Star cheer to school programs and coaching at both the middle and high school levels.

She previously served as the Varsity Assistant Cheer Coach from 2019 to 2023 and was the Head Coach at Milford Central Academy. She also brings experience from her role with the DFRC Blue Gold program, demonstrating her commitment to leadership and community involvement.

Coach Pagden is widely recognized for her strong communication skills, her ability to create a supportive and inclusive team environment, and her tireless dedication to student-athletes. She’s known to go above and beyond — whether it’s building routines, encouraging team spirit, or supporting students in and out of the classroom.

“Cheer has always been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’m beyond excited to get this season started!”

We are confident that Coach Pagden will bring positive energy, experience, and a true love for the sport to the Milford Cheer program.

Please join us in welcoming her to her new role. We can’t wait to see what this season holds under her leadership!
