COLUMBIA, MO. - When longtime Mizzou women’s volleyball coaches Wayne and Susan Kreklow recently shared their retirement plans with their boss, Andy Humes was as surprised as anyone. Humes, MU’s executive associate athletics director, oversees the MU volleyball program, which on this campus is a relatively easy job considering the massive success the Kreklows have enjoyed over two decades.
“He kind of looked at us like, ‘Are you nuts? Why would you do that now? You had a great year last year and you got everybody coming back. Who would step away from that now?” Wayne Kreklow said Friday.
