Julie is determined to lead Mississippi State volleyball to new heights. We are excited to welcome Julie to Starkville." Darty has eight years of collegiate coaching experience, including four years as a head coach and two years as an assistant in the Southeastern Conference.

The 2013 and 2014 AVCA "Thirty under 30" award winner, she led the Dolphins to the 2014 Atlantic Sun Tournament championship and a NCAA tournament appearance during her first year as a collegiate head coach.
