In her 11th year with the Brown University track & field program, Coach Eisenreich continues to lead the Bears to success. Since taking over as the Director of Men's and Women's Track and Field/Cross Country Alden-Rothenberg Coaching Chair in February of 2010, the program thrived. During the 2010 outdoor season, the re-energized Brown squad shocked the league as the women's team garnered second place at the Heptagonal Championships and the men placed third.

In 2011 the team continued its momentum with women finishing just two points out of second place at the Heptagonal Cross Country meet. The women went on to finish fourth and third at the indoor and outdoor track championships. A young men's team made their presence felt with an eighth place finish at the NCAA Regional XC championships and a third place finish at the outdoor track championships. The Bears also qualified 14 members of the men's and women's team to the NCAA Championship East Preliminary round in Bloomington, IN, with two advancing to the NCAA Championships in Des Moines, IA.

When Eisenreich joined the Brown Track and Field coaching staff in 2000 as an assistant, the throws program has redefined itself as the premier squad in the league. In 2000, the throws team consisted of only three athletes. This year the squad will consist of 15 of the best throwers in the Northeast. Coach E's throwers have earned 47 All-Ivy honors, 28 Ivy titles, eight school records, 15 individuals have qualified for the NCAA regional championships, six for the NCAA championships and three have earned NCAA All-American Honors: 2001 fifth place finisher in the outdoor shot Amber Knighten, 2011 10th place finisher in the hammer Brynn Smith, and three time All-American and 2010 NCAA champion in the men's javelin, Craig Kinsley. In 2009, Eisenreich's successes were recognized by her peers by being awarded USTFCCCA Men's Northeast Region Assistant Coach of the Year.

Eisenreich knew she would go into coaching after having outstanding mentors in both high school and college. She began at Purdue as a graduate assistant, coaching multi-event athletes, vaulters and throwers for the women's team. While there, she also directed the Purdue Area Track Club for athletes ages 5 to 17. After finishing her graduate degree, Eisenreich moved on to Colgate for two years. She coached athletes to school records in five throwing events, while also coaching the jumpers and serving as the recruiting coordinator.

Michelle's coaching philosophy is a three-part guiding force: 1) develop the individual on a personal and athletic level; 2) create a healthy team attitude; 3) contribute to the growth of the sport of track and field. She accomplishes these three goals by continually studying the science and the training technique of the events she coaches and making a personal investment into the welfare of each athlete; she instills a strong team ethic and an understanding of how to achieve team success in each individual; and she works with track and field at both the national and grass roots level.

She competed at Carlton College in her native Minnesota, winning her conference championship five times in the shot and discus. In 1995, she was the MIAC Athlete of the Meet outdoors. She holds school records in the shot, discus, and was the school record holder in the 20lb. weight and hammer until 2002. A four-time participant at the NCAAs, she earned All-American honors in 1995 in the discus.
