REVIEW

In 2020, West Virginia earned 10 wins, including a program-best eight conference matches to finish fourth overall in the Big 12, its highest league finish in Reed Sunahara’s six-year tenure. WVU captured a pair of top-10 road wins for the first time in program history, upsetting No. 10 Kansas in five sets on Oct. 9-10, in Lawrence, Kansas. With the wins, the Mountaineers earned a season sweep over the Jayhawks for the first time in program history.

The Mountaineers also earned their first-ever national ranking in 2020-21, checking in to the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Top 15 Poll three times and climbing as high as No. 13, which was also a program best.

Three individuals finished the season in the top 10 of four Big 12 categories.

Briana Lynch ranked third with a .363 hitting efficiency and ninth with 1.06 blocks per set, Lacey Zerwas ranked fourth with 9.73 assists per set and Alexa Hasting ranked fifth with 3.81 digs per set. Lynch’s hitting percentage of .363 ranks first in a single season in program history.

Lynch and Zerwas earned a pair of Big 12 postseason awards. Lynch made her first career appearance on the All-Conference First Team after earning second-team recognition a year ago, while Zerwas landed on the second team to collect her first career All-Big 12 honor. Lynch also was awarded a spot on the All-Midwest Region First Team by the AVCA. The honor marked the first of her career, as she became the first Mountaineer since 2016 to collect first-team recognition.

Nine Mountaineers earned a spot on the 2020-21 Academic All-Big 12 Volleyball Teams, including eight first-team members. Lindsay Proctor and Zerwas earned their awards with a 4.0 grade point averages. Zerwas also was a recipient of the Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award, the Big 12 Conference’s highest academic honor.

COLISEUM

West Virginia plays its home matches inside the 14,000-seat WVU Coliseum. Director of Athletics and Associate Vice President Shane Lyons, in conjunction with the Mountaineer Athletic Club, continues to make significant progress in the Climbing Higher Campaign with the announcement of a major leadership gift to replace the 50-year-old Coliseum seats in the summer of 2020. Along with the seats, capital funds were provided to replace the video and ribbon boards in the arena that same year.

The Coliseum floor also received a new look in the summer of 2019, in addition to more than $20 million in upgrades in 2016, becoming one of the nation’s supreme showcases for college volleyball. Whether it is during the day, when the sun shines down on the massive structure, or at night, when its golden lights make it an evening showcase, the Coliseum stands as one of the most striking facilities on the WVU campus.

» HEAD COACH

In addition to the squad’s All-Big 12 honors, Caffrey was named the 2016 AVCA Freshman of the Year and was awarded a spot on the AVCA All-Midwest Region Team. She then landed on the AVCA All-Midwest Region Honorable Mention list a year later. Sunahara’s team has earned eight Big 12 Player of the Week nods, led by Caffrey with five weekly honors.

Reed Sunahara enters his seventh season at the helm after being named the coach of the West Virginia University volleyball program in March of 2015.

Under his direction, the Mountaineers made the postseason for the first time since 1991, reaching the 2017 National Invitational Volleyball Championship (NIVC) Semifinals. The tournament bid was made possible with an upset of No. 14 Kansas in the regular-season finale on Nov. 25.

Sunahara then led the team to a program-best eight conference matches during the 2020 season, ending with an 8-8 overall mark to finish fourth overall. West Virginia also earned a series split with Oklahoma for the first time since 2017 and defeated the Sooners in Norman for the first time in program history.

From an individual standpoint, Sunahara has seen five Mountaineers earn All-Big 12 recognition: Payton Caffrey, Katelyn Evans, Briana Lynch, Erin Slinde and Mia Swanegan.

Additionally, Lynch was named to the 2021 American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) All-Midwest Region First Team. The honor marked the first of her career, as she became the first Mountaineer since 2016 to collect first-team recognition.

The Mountaineers also have enjoyed great success off the court. Since Sunahara was named coach in 2015, WVU has been awarded the prestigious AVCA Team Academic Award (3.3 team grade point average or higher) five times and has earned 57 Academic All-Big 12 honors, with a program-record nine Academic All-Big 12 First Team members coming in 2019.

Zerwas also earned All-Big 12 Second Team honors and the Dr. Gerald Lage Academic Achievement Award from the Big 12 Conference, the league’s highest academic honor, joining DeMeo in 2019, Gianna Gotterba in 2017 and Shreve in 2015 as WVU recipients.

In 2020 the Mountaineers made history after posting a program-best eight conference matches, ending with an 8-8 overall mark to finish fourth overall. West Virginia also earned a series split with Oklahoma for the first time since 2017 and defeated the Sooners in Norman for the first time in program history.

In 2019, West Virginia earned 12 wins, including a trio of victories in conference play.

The Mountaineers recorded their 700th win in program history at Delaware on Aug. 30, while Sunahara collected his 375th career victory. The squad’s schedule difficultly was no different, as it competed against the No. 1 team in the nation three times (at Baylor on Oct. 26, at Texas on Nov. 3 and vs. Baylor on Nov. 26).

The Mountaineers completed their season with a thrilling, 3-2 comeback win over Kansas in the regular-season finale on Nov. 30, at the WVU Coliseum. West Virginia has taken Kansas to five sets in four of its last five matches, and with the win, the Mountaineers defeated the Jayhawks at the WVU Coliseum for the first time in program history.

At season end, Evans and Lynch earned Big 12 postseason awards, landing on the All-Big 12 Second Team for the first time in their careers. Evans also was awarded a spot on the All-Midwest Region Honorable Mention Team by the AVCA; the honor marked the first of her career.

Individually, Alexa Hasting anchored WVU’s floor defense and finished her junior campaign ranked inside the top five of two junior season categories. She is third in digs per set (4.18) and is tied for fourth in total digs (451).

She ranked second in the Big 12 in digs per set and eclipsed her 1,000th career dig midway through the season. Evans also collected her 1,000th career kill.

The 2018 team was one of Sunahara’s youngest squads; featuring no seniors, the Mountaineers posted an 11-win season. WVU played four teams ranked inside the AVCA Top-25 Poll, facing nationally-ranked Texas and Baylor twice in league action in addition to nonconference matches against No. 1 Stanford and No. 9 BYU. The season was highlighted with a win against in-state foe Marshall on Nov. 7, to capture the Golden Ball Trophy for the third time in the last four years.

WVUSPORTS.COM Sunahara’s second season. On Sept. 27, Sunahara notched his first Big 12 win with a sweep of Texas Tech in Lubbock, Texas. The Mountaineers added a win over TCU a week later and finished the season with three league triumphs, while dropping a heartbreaker to No. 4 Kansas in five sets to end their home slate in November.

Under Sunahara’s guidance, Caffrey, who earned Big 12 Rookie of the Week honors four times, became the first Mountaineer in program history to earn AVCA Midwest Region Freshman of the Year accolades in addition to spots on the AVCA All-Midwest Region Team, All-Big 12 First Team and All-Big 12 Freshman Team. Slinde joined Caffrey in receiving league accolades, as she landed on the All-Big 12 Freshman Team.

The 2017 season was when West Virginia made its mark in the record book. The Mountaineers made the postseason for the first time in 26 years, advancing to the NIVC Semifinals. WVU also won three of its last four league matches, upsetting No. 14 Kansas in the regular-season finale for its first-ever win over a top-25 team.

West Virginia finished the 2017 campaign in fifth place for the first time since joining the conference in 2012. Additionally, WVU’s 21-13 record is only the second time in program history the Mountaineers have won 20 or more matches since their move to big-time volleyball in the Big East in 1995. With 21 wins in 2017, Sunahara earned his highest win total as coach of the Mountaineers.

WVU also tied the team’s longest win streak since 2014 with a win over TCU on Sept. 20, notching 10 consecutive victories in the span of 18 days. However, the streak was snapped on Sept. 23, as the team suffered a heartbreaking five-set loss to No. 6 Texas inside the WVU Coliseum.

The 2016 season saw WVU more than double its 2015 win total, posting 12 victories in

In her first season, Plungas helped the team to a program-best eight conference matches, ending their fall season with an 8-8 overall mark to finish fourth overall. West Virginia also earned a series split with Oklahoma for the first time since 2017 and defeated the Sooners in Norman for the first time in program history.

Additionally, Plungas helped coach five All-Patriot League performers in her two-year tenure, including the 2019 Patriot League Player of the Year, Alli Lowe, who also landed on the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Honorable Mention Team. Lowe became just the second player in program history to receive the recognition and the first since 1996.

Plungas arrived at Colgate after a five-year stint on the Albany volleyball staff, serving as an assistant coach from 2015-17, after a twoyear stint as the team’s graduate assistant.

She was a four-year letterwinner for the Great Danes from 2009-13.

Plungas helped the Great Danes to 63 total wins and a 47-15 record in the America East Conference throughout her five years as a member of the UAlbany coaching staff. She helped UAlbany to a 2017 regular-season America East championship and a pair of tournament championship-game appearances in 2015 and 2016.

As a student-athlete at UAlbany, Plungas served as a six-rotation player, leading the Great Danes to a pair of America East titles in 2010 and 2011. She tallied 732 kills, 653 digs, 219 total blocks and 48 service aces in her career, earning All-America East Second Team honors as a senior.

Plungas graduated from UAlbany with a bachelor’s degree in history and English in 2013.

She later received her master’s in secondary education in 2015. During that time, she spent time on the club circuit, serving as the head coach of the Legion Volleyball Club from 2010-16.

She is married to David Plungas, who is the football defensive coordinator at Robert Morris.

The 2020-21 volleyball season was disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. WVU, as well as the other eight members of the Big 12 conference played 16 league matches. Each program played eight doubleheaders with competition against the same opponent in consecutive days at the same site.

The teams were not permitted to play any non-conference opponents during the fall season. Fall championships were moved to spring 2021. WVU concluded its spring slate with five nonconference matches with a 2-3 record.

Plungas joined the Mountaineer staff after spending two-years as an assistant at Colgate.

She now serves as WVU’s recruiting coordinator, while assisting with the team’s daily training sessions and match preparations.

2021 SEASON

OUTLOOK

As the West Virginia University women’s volleyball team prepares for its first match of the 2021 season, it’s time to hear what head coach Reed Sunahara expects to see from his team this season.

Entering his seventh season with the Mountaineers, Sunahara most recently led his team to one of its most successful conference finishes. The squad posted a programbest, 8-8 mark to finish fourth overall in the Big 12.

For the second consecutive season, programs will play a double round-robin format of 16 matches scheduled in eight double-headers. Competition against the same opponent will occur at the same site in consecutive days, unless extenuating circumstances. The host site for the series is reversed from last season’s schedule.

The team(s) that finishes with the highest winning percentage will be crowned the Big 12 champion.

Sunahara’s players are certain to give it their all on the volleyball court this fall.

With the first competition in sight, Sunahara sat down to share his thoughts on the Mountaineers’ upcoming season.

You are coming off one of the best seasons in WVU volleyball history. How will you and your team continue to grow and get better?

Our motto is getting 1% better daily. They’re not satisfied with last year’s finish and have continued to work hard to be even better this season. They will do everything to build off of what we accomplished last season.

How do you feel about your growth as a coach over the last six years?

I have grown a lot over the last six years. Every day and every year is a learning experience. I feel that we are on the upward swing, and we have continued to get better since I arrived in 2015. I look forward to what the future holds for this team.

A total of six letterwinners return to the court this season. Who are your key returners?

All of our returners are key for us. They bring a wealth of experience to our program. (Fifth year middle blocker) Briana (Lynch) being named to the 2020-21 All-Big 12 First Team and (senior setter) Lacey (Zerwas) on the All-Big 12 Second Team. Also, (Fifth year defensive specialist) Alexa (Hasting) being a three-year starter for our squad definitely helps.

You have a lot of new faces joining the team. Six to be exact. How has it been getting them acquainted to the team?

With all the new players, it’s been fun watching them fit in and contribute to our program. They’re working hard and figuring out what their roles are to help add value to our program. I like the improvements that they are making.

Are there any newcomers that could make an impact?

One of the main reasons I recruited (Redshirt senior setter) Adrian Ell and (fifth year outside hitter) Athena Ardila was their collegiate playing experience. They add a lot to what we’re doing. With the freshmen, they all bring different things to the table so I’m excited to see their contribution.

The world of sports is finally looking up after the COVID-19 Pandemic. How have you and your team taken advantage of being able to get back to an almost normal sports season?

I’m proud of our team for the way they handled the Pandemic. They’ve worked hard over the summer to get ready for the season and it’s been showing. It was a tough time, and it still is, but I hope that it’s closer to normal than not. We’re looking forward to having our fans back in the stands this season.”

Lynch was named to the All-Big 12 Preseason Team for the second year in a row. What are you looking to see from her this season?

I’m expecting big things out of Bri this season.

I told her at the end of last season that she’s not even close to reaching her potential. Bri’s getting stronger every day, she’s worked really hard to get where she is.

How will the COVID-19 eligibility year help your team continue to be successful?

It brings experience to our program with our fifth-year players. These athletes will be a key to our success this season.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS/ASSOCIATE VP

SHANE LYONS

In his seventh year as the director of athletics at West Virginia University, Shane Lyons’ vison for the athletic program is crystal clear and working. It’s a vision that focuses on the betterment of more than 500 student-athletes and the dayto-day needs that will help them succeed in the classroom and in competition.

His open lines of communications have made him a popular role model for WVU athletes and coaches. His honest, fair and caring approach has energized an entire department, which has led to great success on and off the field. Whether it’s regularly scheduled meetings with the student-athletes or his open-door office policy, Lyons has his finger on the pulse of his student-athletes, coaches and staff.

He devotes endless energy to his Climbing Higher facilities master plan that will keep West Virginia a strong Power 5 institution and position his department for growth and continued success. Lyons’ Climbing Higher facilities master plan isn’t about keeping up with the Joneses, it’s about taking what his department has, improving it and making it complete for the student-athlete. It’s an aggressive $100 million fundraising campaign centered on one of his core values, which is enhancing the student-athlete experience.

From training, nutrition, medical and competitiveness, Lyons’ vision is for future success, building winning programs and growing WVU’s strong reputation across the country.

He is about results, and he has already left a great deal of accomplishments in his rear-view mirror.

In 2019, West Virginia recorded its highest APR score ever at 985 and again finished higher than the national average.

The overall athletics department GPA was its highest at 3.26 with 13 teams over a 3.0 GPA for the year. Lyons commissioned and announced an Economic Impact study that showed Mountaineer Athletics produced more than $300 million to the state’s economy and more than $78 million to the local economy. And with the local economy in mind, Lyons’s department will assist with the formal opening of a new $45 million aquatic and track facility that will not only benefit WVU’s swimming and diving program, but also local high schools and the entire community.

Among the Mountaineer highlights in the 2019 campaign were 43 All-Americans, 81 All-Conference performers, three conference championships, 159 Academic All-Conference selections, seven teams to the NCAA postseason, a fourthplace finish for the Heisman Trophy and 22 professional draft picks among all sports.

In addition, Lyons’ department hosted for the first time in history both the NCAA Rifle Championships and the Big 12 golf championship as well as the NCAA baseball regionals for the first time since 1955. In total, WVU athletics hosted more than 160 events during the 2018-19 season.

From 2015-18, he spearheaded and finished more than $100 million in fan enhancements to Milan Puskar Stadium and the WVU Coliseum, completed a second phase Coliseum renovations, bringing the arena up to current ADA seating code, and for the first-time ever, introduced a second video board to Milan Puskar Stadium to provide information and improve fan entertainment.

Overseeing 18 varsity sports, a self-sustaining department budget of more than $93 million and 250 employees, under Lyons’ leadership, WVU athletics has implemented a Clinical and Sport Psychology unit with a full-time director and professional interns, added specialized learning assistants to the Student-Athlete Development unit and entered into a

partnership with WVU Medicine’s Neuroscience Department to assist in the training and recovery of student-athletes, all emphasizing his overall commitment to the well-being and performance of Mountaineer student-athletes.

Ask him and he’ll tell you it’s not his department, but West Virginia’s department, and he can tell you his vision to improve it not only for the coming year, but for three, five, seven and 10 years down the road. He cares, and the proof lies in what he has already accomplished in four years. The director hates to be last, and he rolls up his sleeves every day to make sure WVU is not last in anything.

Additionally, his work with WVU President E. Gordon Gee’s senior leadership team, as well as the Big 12 Conference and other national committees, has brought additional respect and positive exposure to his department and the University. He currently serves on the Big 12 Administration Committee, Finance and Budget Committee and the Game Management and Officiating Subcommittee. In 2018, he chaired the overall athletic directors committee for the Big 12, was named again to the NCAA Division I Council and will serve as chair of the NCAA Division I Football Oversight Committee. He is also a member of the college football competition committee and locally serves on the board of directors for Mylan Park in Morgantown.

Lyons came to West Virginia after spending three years as the deputy director of athletics and chief operating officer at Alabama where he worked closely on day-to-day strategic leadership and direction of the Crimson Tide Athletic program.

During his time at Alabama, his responsibilities included oversight of a $120 million budget, management of the day-to-day operations of the department and oversight of the Crimson Tide’s 21 sports teams. In addition, he played a pivotal role in a historic renegotiation of Alabama’s multimedia rights agreement that started in 2014 and was involved in several significant capital projects totaling more than $85 million.

The Crimson Tide won seven national titles in five different sports during his time there – two in football, two in men’s golf, one in women’s golf, one in gymnastics and one in softball. He also played a critical role in the hiring of four Alabama head coaches.

Prior to joining the Alabama staff in November 2011, Lyons spent 10 years as an associate commissioner at the Atlantic Coast Conference. At the ACC, Lyons focused on conference-wide compliance and academic initiatives, providing direct assistance to the conference’s presidents, chancellors and athletics directors in matters dealing with NCAA regulatory matters.

In addition, he served as the ACC’s human resource manager and was responsible for the administration, negotiation and mediation of the employee benefits program and managing the conference’s organizational policies and procedures. He was part of the senior administrative team for ACC events, including the football championship game, the men’s basketball tournament and men’s and women’s NCAA basketball events.

Prior to working at the ACC, Lyons served as associate athletics director for compliance at Big 12 member Texas Tech from 1998 to 2001. During that time, Lyons assumed responsibility for the leadership, administration and implementation of a comprehensive NCAA compliance program with emphasis toward rules education and extensive moni-

Before joining Texas Tech, Lyons worked at the NCAA for almost 10 years as a senior membership services representative, where he was responsible for the oversight and coordination of rules and interpretations for the 25 membership service representatives and was the staff liaison to various NCAA standing committees.

Lyons began his career in college athletics in July 1988 as assistant commissioner of the Big South Conference.

With the Big South, he was in charge of conference-wide compliance and championships.

A native of Parkersburg, West Virginia, and a graduate of Parkersburg High, Lyons was a standout basketball player for the Big Reds. He earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in sport management from WVU in 1987 and 1988, respectively.

Lyons, the University’s 12th athletic director, and his wife, Emily, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, have two children: Cameron and Brooke. Cameron is a member of the football team at Akron and Brooke attends Morgantown High School.
