Meierotto’s First Season As Head Volleyball Coach

The Meierotto name is the stuff of volleyball legend in this region. How does it feel to be back home and coaching?

I absolutely love being back home. I feel extremely grateful to be coaching the sport I grew up on. I am very proud to be continuing my mom’s and dad’s legacy as a coach in the area with a goal to have a positive impact on all players I coach.

Can you talk about your philosophy, your secret sauce for success?
My goal is to empower young women to believe in themselves and be successful on and off the court. I want my team to know I’m committed. I’m here for them and by working together good things happen. A big focus was thinking an believing we could win which was really positive. Love what you do, make the best out of every opportunity, have respect for the game, and enjoy the process.

Future plans?
I try to live in the moment and not look too far ahead. But as far as future plans, I’d have to say my goals are to create a winning program, be competitive at the top of the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference while encouraging our young women to be the best they can be and positive role models in the community.
