JULIE JENKINS OF TRINITY UNIVERSITY was named SCAC Co‐Coach‐of‐the‐Year.

Jenkins led her squad to its second regular season title in the last three seasons, as the 16th-ranked Tigers posted a 13-1 conference mark and are currently 25-7 overall. The winningest coach among all active NCAA Division III volleyball coaches, Jenkins stands at 881-398 (.689) over a 33-year career. Her teams have won 30 or matches in 17 seasons and have posted a SCAC regular season winning percentage of .906 (298-31). Trinity has won a record 17 conference volleyball championships, including a streak of 11 consecutive years from 1998-2008. Jenkins was selected the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Division III Coach of the Year in 1999, after leading the Tigers to the NCAA Championship match.

This is the 13th time Jenkins has been recognized by her peers as the conference’s Coach-of-the-Year, which ties her with current Trinity head men’s soccer coach Paul McGinlay for the most COTY honors earned in a single sport in league history.

Jenkins shares this honor with Don Flora of Southwestern University.
