Transition from being a player to coach..... Everything my coaches ever said to me throughout my athletic career finally made sense! Transitioning from a player to coach has been amazing experience thus far and I would expect it continue that way. I have always considered myself to be a student of the game and now, being on the other side of the white lines, I have already expanded my volleyball knowledge tremendously. I am so excited for the opportunity to be with the Aggies in the fall and share with the girls my knowledge of defense, serve recieve, and passion for winning I have acquired throughout my colliegate career here at NMSU. Furthermore, I love working with the girls and seeing them transform into better players and young women on a day to day basis. It is such a blessing to be a contributing part of thier success on and off the court. I also feel so fortunante to be able to continue being apart of the girls lives as I truly do care for and love each and every one of them. It is an extremely competitive atmosphere in the gym and offices as the coaching staff puts in countless hours and are constantly bouncing ideas off one another all in lue of better our programing and achieving our collective goals we have set for ourselves. I am so blessed to be able to stand along side Mike, Kieth, and Tric, as a coach because I know I have so much to learn and gain from them! They are an extraordinary bunch of individuals and want nothing more than to make NMSU the best program it can be. GO AGGIES :) Kelsi Phillips- Graduate Assistant Coach |
