“It’s a volleyball family! I keep in touch with a lot of my former players, as a lot of them come back to visit! My coaching philosophy is simple. I want to work harder than every team, have more fun than every team, and be more connected than every team. I want everyone to envy our standard, how we play, and the love we have for the game and each other. My goal is to create great relationships with my players and help my athletes achieve all their goals and ambitions by believing in themselves on and off the court.” – Coach Sobowicz
