Coaching Mission: 
  • First and foremost, it is our goal to provide student-athletes with an opportunity to grow and develop their relationship with the Lord. We understand that everyone comes in at a different point in their walk with the Lord, but it is our hope to walk alongside our players in that journey. Second, we expect our student-athletes to hold themselves to excellent academic standards while practicing time management skills in order to balance academic and athletic responsibilities. Finally, we aim to provide our student-athletes with a great four-year volleyball experience in our program. It is our intent that players participating in this program understand the value of hard work while striving to achieve individual and team goals.
