Michigan State Spartans women’s volleyball head coach Cathy George has announced her retirement. George’s career spanned 35 seasons, including spending the last 17 years in East Lansing.
George took over at MSU in 2005, taking the Spartans to the NCAA Tournament in her second year and advancing to the Sweet 16 in her third season at the helm.
George finished her tenure at Michigan State with a record of 302-233, and is the winningest coach in MSU volleyball program history.
Before her time at Michigan State, George became the first woman coach to take a team to the NCAA Division I Final Four with Texas-Arlington in 1989.
