Sherry Dunbar-Kruzan (Honorary)
Sherry Dunbar-Kruzan was the head coach of the College of Charleston volleyball program from 2003-06 and amassed an overall record of 113-22 (.837) including a 67-3 SoCon record (.957). Her teams captured four Southern Conference regular-season titles, three SoCon Tournament titles and made three NCAA Tournament appearances in 2004, 2005 and 2006. CofC beat North Carolina, 3-1, in the 2005 NCAA Tournament First Round, which marked the program's first of two all-time wins in postseason play. It also marked the first time a SoCon volleyball team won a NCAA Tournament match in league history. A two-time SoCon Coach of the Year honoree in 2003 and 2005, her squad also set single-season program records for overall wins (32), conference victories (18) and overall winning percentage (.941). Dunbar-Kruzan earned honorable mention recognition for the Collegiate Volleyball Update Coach of the Year Award in 2005. While her teams were dominant on the volleyball court, they were equally impressive in the classroom, as the Cougars earned the American Volleyball Coaches Association Team Academic Award three-straight seasons from 2003-05 and former Cougar standout Rebecca Wieters was named a CoSIDA/ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America Second Team selection. After her time at The College, she served as head volleyball coach at Indiana University from 2007-17, where she led the Hoosiers to the NCAA Sweet 16 in 2010.
