Currently I am the Head Coach for Boys Volleyball at Sunrise Mountain High, having just completed my 23rd season as the only head coach of the boys program since its inception in 2004. Because of the many hardworking young men I have coached, we have won 7 Region titles and made 14 state tournament appearance.

My coaching career started in 1982 and through the years I have coached various sports: volleyball,

basketball and track. In addition to coaching I also served as an Athletic Director for two years at high

school in Wisconsin, where I was born and raised.

My educational background includes degrees in Physical Education, Marketing and a Master’s Degree in Computer Science.

I am very proud of the programs that I have worked in through the many years of coaching. I love the athletes that I work with and I am very fortunate to be associated with so many fine young people.

Coach MJ has been coaching with Matrix for about 10 years. MJ also has run the Estrella Foothills High School Volleyball program since it’s inception. MJ has had a very successful coaching career, including wining boys USAV nationals, and several State Championship wins/appearances in both Girls and Boys. MJ is also very active in Mathlete and Robotics for EFH competing at the highest level. We are so lucky to have MJ as part of the Matrix Family.  Athletes do very well under his coaching and excel very quickly no matter the position they play.

Coach D has been passionate about volleyball since the age of 10.

She participated in many clinics before starting her volleyball career playing middle school, high school, and Club.

Most of her experience was as a middle blocker.  The sport taught her discipline, teamwork, and confidence that extended beyond the court.

She very much is excited to develop and grow young athletes to give as much as the sport has given her.

Coach T brings many seasons of experience coaching both boys' and girls' volleyball at the high school and club levels. She focuses on developing strong fundamentals and emphasizes hard work. Even more than Coach T loves the game of volleyball, she loves to help athletes find themselves and become better versions of themselves both on and off the court. She looks forward to a great season!  Coach T currently is the boys JV coach at Buckeye High School.

Coach Sunni has been with the Matrix Family for many years. She played college volleyball and continues to play as an adult when she can. She has coached both  girls and boys.

We appreciate all she does as a coach for this team and looking forward to another exciting year. She has already expressed the future plans to make this year amazing.
