A new era is upon the Mountaineers as the volleyball season opener closes in. App State is excited to kick off the new season after hiring Sarah Rumely Noble as its new head coach.
“I want to build a culture of excellence,” Noble said. “We are going to chase great every day.”
Noble comes in as a former assistant coach and recruiter, most recently at Louisiana State University, where she is credited with bringing in the program’s top 25-ranked recruiting classes, along with speeding up offenses across the nation. Noble was just as talented as a player, becoming the University of Kentucky’s all time leading setter, leading the Wildcats to four straight NCAA Tournaments and being inducted into the Kentucky Athletic Hall of Fame in 2017.
