Catarina Rocha is the head coach of women's cross country and an assistant coach for track and field at Providence College in Providence, Rhode Island, entering her sixth season on the staff and first leading the women's cross country program. She also took on duties with the men's and women's cross country and track and field teams following the retirement of longtime director Ray Treacy.
Rocha joined the coaching staff in 2021 and was part of an immediate return to the national meet, as Providence's women qualified for the NCAA Cross Country Championships for the first time since 2017. The team returned to the NCAA Championships in 2022, and Rocha coached Jane Buckley to the BIG EAST individual title that fall. In 2023, Providence won the Penn Relays 4x1500-meter relay in record-setting fashion.
