After 22 seasons, more than 500 wins, and a program built from the ground up into a national contender, Kirsten Bernthal Booth is stepping down as head coach of Creighton Volleyball.
Booth’s impact on the program is immeasurable. When she arrived in 2003, the Bluejays were coming off a 3-23 season, playing in a high school gym in front of friends and family. Over the next two decades, she turned Creighton into a powerhouse—culminating in a 32-3 finish last fall and a program-record No. 6 final national ranking. The Jays’ only losses came in five sets to Final Four teams, and the year ended with a historic Elite Eight appearance.
