Coffeyville Community College will be searching for a new head volleyball coach.

 

Deardin Kelley has accepted the head coaching position at William Jewell College in Kansas City, a Division II program in the Great Lakes Valley Conference.

 

Kelley becomes one of the youngest coaches in all of D2, at just 26 years old. She says although she is young, she doesn't think about her age.

 

Originally not wanting to be a coach, values have shifted for Kelley since the conclusion of her playing career. She says her younger self would be shocked, but proud.

 

Kelley won 48 games in her two seasons at CCC. She says she is grateful for the memories in Coffeyville.

 

The Red Ravens will immediately begin searching for the next leader of the volleyball program.
