Grove City was an interim coach. Looks like she is from Western PA. Does she get the job permanently?
Briar Cliff is splitting coaching jobs. Current coach was in charge of both men and women's programs. He is going to stay with the men's team and a coach for women's team will be hired.
Blackburn is an interesting school. Very small...I looked at it 30 years ago as a HS senior and I think it was only about 500 students...doubt it has changed much changed much. Interesting aspect of the school is the work experience. Students work may jobs and projects around campus as part of their education. That could include construction projects on campus, office work in various departments, etc...

utepathletics.com/news/2018/11/12/womens-volleyball-utep-announces-change-in-leadership-with-volleyball-program.aspxUTEP Director of Athletics Jim Senter announced on Monday that volleyball head coach Holly Watts will not return for the 2019 season. A national search will begin immediately to hire her successor. "While the hard work and dedication is unquestioned, the results on the court did not meet expectations under Holly's leadership," Senter said. "We thank her for her service to UTEP and wish her well in the future." Watts finishes her UTEP tenure with a record of 48-127, including a 24-64 mark in Conference USA play. The Miners last posted double-digit victories (14) in her first season as head coach in 2013. UTEP qualified for the Conference USA Tournament twice in her six seasons as head coach, in 2013 and 2016. The Miners finished 5-21 in 2018 with a 2-12 C-USA record.

Well, I think that was Jim's last duty at his last gig and possibly his first at his new gig.

While it does seem to read a little harsh; I find it refreshing that they just tell the truth. Instead of the "Going in another direction" or "Have decided to make a change" or "They will be pursuing other opportunities". Just my opinion, I mean we're all grown ups.

Sucks for Holly. She is a great technical coach and a super nice person.

Really sad to hear about UTEP. Holly is one of the the most ethical, loyal, hard-working coaches I know...and yes, great technical coach. Based on the release, this is about not getting the desired results. Really a bummer...

When the top section of your bio is about your team's GPA, you have to know you are on the hot seat. Holly was phenomenal at Arkansas and FSU and I would imagine she'll get a few phone calls about a top assistant at various places this offseason. At least she should get those calls.

He is a good guy but this was honestly the tale of bad scheduling his 2014 season and literally never bounced back. In 2013 he won the SoCon maybe with like 28 wins? And then the next season, 2014, scheduled ridiculous where I think he started out 0-12 and just down hill from there. GSU has always been strong.

Based on the release, this is about not getting the desired results. Really a bummer... I remember watching her play at Texas for Mick Haley as Holly Graham. For a while there she was the hottest assistant going, while working with Poole at Arkansas and FSU. I concur on her integrity, loyalty, and work ethic. I hope she stays in the profession, these are the people we need to retain.

I noticed that Kelly Hogan is not on staff anymore either. They did not pick her to hold the interim title.
