Spartanburg, SC - First-year head coach, Karen Glover, was selected as the 2011 SoCon Volleyball Coach of the Year. Glover led the Catamounts to an 8-8 mark in SoCon play and a third place seed in the North Division. The Cats were predicted to finish last in the preseason voting.
"It was really a great honor as there are a lot of great coaches in the SoCon," said head coach Karen Glover. "I would also like to thank my assistant John Brannon because we definitely would not be in this position without all of his hard work. Also, the players have been amazing this year to work with, and I attribute this award to them."
The 13 overall wins by the Cats are the most for a WCU volleyball team since 2003 when WCU won 16 matches. Glover is the second Catamount coach to be named SoCon Volleyball Coach of the Year as Trish Howell was the first, back in 1983.
