🚨’24-‘25 GIRLS COACHING LINEUP!🚨
Introducing our 13 Black coaching staff for the 2024-2025 indoor season, Coach Kristin, Coach Mack and Coach Song! See their bios below 👇
📌 Coach Kristin
We are so happy to have Kristin back, entering her 5th season with NorCal! In previous years, she has successfully led our 11-Black teams, guiding them to medal at top national qualifiers and showcase themselves at USAV Nationals. With 14 years of coaching experience across 5 different regions, she brings a wealth of expertise to the table. A former standout Division 1 middle blocker at Wake Forest University, Kristin’s playing career was nothing short of impressive. She was all-time program leader in blocks and attacking percentage, and still holds the program records for most points (34) and kills (30) ever totaled in a single match! With her passion for the game and extensive experience, Kristin is dedicated to developing young athletes and helping them reach their full potential!
📌Coach Mack
Mack returns to NorCal for her 6th year of coaching at NorCal, her 8th year overall. Most recently, Mack assisted our 18 Black and 11 Black teams in 2023-2024 as well as headed up our Boys 13 Black team. Mack also doubles as our Social Media Coordinator! In her club years, Coach Mack played for NorCal as a Libero and converted to setter in high school. In college, she won two national titles with Cal Poly SLO’s Women’s Club team as the starting setter. Mackenzie has an immense passion for coaching and looks to her players to find small victories within their game – to build on their abilities both physically and mentally every time they step on the court.
📌Coach Song
Song began his coaching career working under Assistant Coach Chen Feng at the University of Missouri between ‘04-‘08. Coaching at the club level for 4 years, (entering his 3rd year at NorCal) Song has helped his teams qualify for Junior National Championships each year since joining NorCal including a top 20 finish (2023) and a Gold medal finish in the 12 American Division (2024). As a coach, Song endeavors to cultivate strong character traits among his athletes such as teamwork, work ethic, and grit.
