Savannah Siegrist of Davidsonville assumes the role of assistant coach under Head Coach Dylan Hough, who is entering his fourth season as the leader of the Jacksonville University beach volleyball program. The Davidsonville native played her freshman season with JU, where she led the Dolphins with the most wins as part of the #1 pairing. She notched notable wins against ranked opponents North Florida and South Carolina. Siegrist then transferred to Oregon, where she graduated and played for three years, totaling 29 wins. She received her Bachelor's and master's degrees in Sports Business from Oregon.
Siegrist has been coaching beach volleyball since 2016 for clubs, including South River Volleyball Club, Grit Volleyball, Dynamic Volleyball Academy, Oregon Sand Volleyball, and Sandsharks Beach Volleyball. Siegrist was involved in the first years of USAV Beach High Performance, including playing for the A2 National and the Chesapeake Region (CHRVA) team, and coaching the development team for CHRVA. Siegrist was recently the Head Men's Beach Volleyball Coach at Weber International, where she led the team to a 3rd place finish at the AVCA Men's National Championship this past fall.
Siegrist will join a staff that is ecstatic about continuing to grow the program. The Dolphins look to build upon the last two seasons, which were the winningest seasons in JU history, with 10 wins in 2022 and 13 wins in 2023.
