Rally Together with the AVCA College Coach Panel - Part II

In partnership with the AVCA, North Country Region will be hosting our second AVCA College Coach Recruiting Panel on Tuesday, May 12th @ 5 PM CST.  All coaches, players and parents are welcome and encouraged to participate in this free webinar!  


Our first College Coaches' Panel was excellent!  That recruiting panel included experienced coaches from Division I, Division II, Division III, NAIA and the NJCAA: 
  • Division I: Geoff Carlston - Former Big 10 Head Coach at Ohio State University
  • Division II: Wayne Chadwick - Former Head Coach at Bemidji State University 
  • Division III: Beth Wilmeth - Head Coach at University of Northwestern - St. Paul
  • NAIA: Brigitte Greywater - Head Coach at Valley City State University
  • NJCAA: Jane Peterson - Head Coach at Central Lakes College

The panel was enlightening from a coach and parent perspective with insight as to how many and what type of scholarships are available at each level, what coaches are looking for in recruiting videos, how to get a player on the radar and/or how best to reach out to college coaches, what the student-athlete commitment looks like at each level, and so much more!  The link to the first panel is provided below. 

In addition, participants have the opportunity to enter questions in real time to be answered by the panel.  

North Country Region is excited to hear from the coaches the AVCA has gathered to participate in the AVCA College Coach Recruiting Panel - Part II on Tuesday night:
  • Division I: Susan Halverson - Former Assistant Coach at Ohio State University
  • Division II:  Paul McDonald - Former Head Coach at Francis Marion University
  • Division III:  Emily Hayes - Head Coach at Lewis & Clark College
  • NAIA:  Erin Luthy - Head Coach at Taylor University
  • NJCAA:  Jim Deitz - Lincoln Land Community College
Register prior to the event to be able to join. The registration link for the seminar can be found on the North Country Region LinkTree.

Please share this great opportunity with any parents and players who are considering pursuing volleyball at the next level!

Rally Together with a Weekend Family Project!

It's Friday which means the weekend is here - yay!  This weekend how about spending some time on a fun family project - building a setter target that will provide hours of volleyball practice while we #StayHome.   I've heard a few great things about this particular target:  Relatively simple and inexpensive to build on your own Target basket is adjustable to different heights and angles Not too heavy to move and transport   Families who have used the below plans to create a target have tailored them to their specific needs - one following the plans exactly and one varying slightly the target shape and adding a net (see Hally's video above).  Both devices work well for their individual purposes.   The plans are even simple enough for players to help build themselves with a little supervision!   Shalyn building her own setter target! "Measure twice, cut once!" And here's the finished product in action...
