Seems somewhat surprising but given they have already hired Matt Jones who had been the associate HC for several years, it was obviously something planned out and kept under wraps. UCSB has had a decent run the past five years or so after a pretty mediocre first 5 years under Welch. Hope Jones can keep the momentum going and maybe get SB to the Sweet 16 (or better) again. ucsbgauchos.com/sports/w-volley/2022-23/releases/20230308j80tt4 |

My kid ran the UCSB summer volleyball camp a few years back and Coach Jones put on a pretty good show on the final day when the parents showed up. It was like 100+ kids in the gym and they were all sitting on the court. He goes kid by kid and rattled off their first name, seemed like he nailed them all. So...gonna say he at least has a strong memory. Beyond that, I don't have much.

UCSB has some great athletes. Hopefully the new head coach does a great job because I think the team has a lot of potential!

Agree, I was at the match vs Cal Poly a few years ago when the highlight was Zoe Fleck getting a chase ball while crashing through the Gatorade cart. Place went crazy. Obviously she moved on to UCLA then Texas. Ruddins was also fantastic. She could manufacture a kill off of any set. Frohley was also fun to watch. Not sure what 2023 will bring, but will definitely go to a couple of matches. |
