"Jack brings in an extreme wealth of knowledge from playing volleyball and coaching it at the game's highest levels. We've been able to go up against Jack led teams over the past few seasons and we're excited to now have that expertise on our own sideline. I had the privilege to play for Jack as a collegiate athlete and I'm extremely grateful that our guys now get that same opportunity," said head coach Christian Taylor.
