Washington head volleyball coach Keegan Cook announced this morning that he is stepping down effective immediately and taking the same position at the University of Minnesota. Cook won 4 Pac-12 titles in his 8 years as the head coach of the UW volleyball program including a trip to the Final Four in 2020. However, this season was marred by injuries despite a veteran roster and Washington failed to make it to the second round of the NCAA tournament for the first time in 2 decades.
Minnesota had an opening after their long-time head coach Hugh McCutcheon stepped down to take a role in the athletic department.
