SUT6CII volleyball coach.

Kristy Allgier (All-gire) hasbeen named Head VolleyballCoach and Intramural Directorat the South Dakota School ofMines and Technology.

Allgier has been an assistantvolleyball coach at NationalAmerican University the last twoseasons and an assistant atRapid City Central High Schoolthe past four years. She re-places Connie Mettille, who leftTech for a teaching position atWinona State University inMinnesota.

Allgier was a member of theNAU's volleyball team and grad-

uated in 1999 with a Bachelor's of science degree in Sports Medicine.

"I am very pleased Kristy has accepted our offer to become our newvolleyball coach", offered Tech Athletic Director Hugh Welsh. "She isa knowledgeable volleyball person and will bring a great deal of energyand enthusiasm to the program. This is a wonderful opportunity for herto begin a career as a head coach and I know she will do very well."

Tech finished 20-16 last season and 7-5 in the DAC-10 Conference.

"I am excited about this position and I am looking forward to August 12when our players report to fall camp," said Allgier. Her husband, Matt,works for Morton Buildings in Rapid City.

Crystal ParsonsStudent Ass't Coach

...2000 preview SDTechNo area sport will be as different this fall as college volleyball. Teams have to

face a whole new style of play with the change to rally scoring and new servingrules. How a team responds to those changes will go a long way towarddetermining what kind of season they will have.

Kristy Allgier is determined that SDTech will survive those changes andcontinue the improvement the Hardrockers showed last season.

Allgier is Tech's new head coach, having replaced Connie Mettille, whowas the DAC-10 coach of the year in 2000.

Under Mettille last season, the Hardrockers showed big improvement andended the season with a 20-16 record after having finished 5-29 the previousseason.

Allgier hopes she can continue to lead Tech in the right direction. "So far theteam is adjusting well. The team is liking the improvements we've made."

The Hardrockers figure to be a veteran squad in 2001 with four returningstarters-Megan Barnes, Lindsay Young, Molly Barnes and Jami Zilles.Megan Barnes was an AII-DAC-10 selection last year.

Tech also figures to get a boost from freshman Mandi Kerr of Laramie, WY.Kerr was a redshirt freshman in the Univ. of Wyoming's volleyball program lastseason, but has now transferred to Tech.

"We have lots of pieces," Allgier said. "We're trying to fit them together tomake a puzzle. We're looking forward to a successful season."

The Hardrockers didn't go far to find Allgier. She was an assistant coachwith National American University the past two seasons and played volleyballwith NAU, graduating in 1999. Allgier got some good experience with NAU thepast two seasons as the Mavericks qualified for the NAIA National Tournamentboth years.

Tech is Allgier's first head coaching position. Allgier's chief goal cominginto the season was to help the Hardrockers speed up their game-an absolutenecessity given the rule change to rally scoring.

"With rally scoring, (the game) will go a lot faster," Allgier said. "Every pointcounts. Every serve counts. Now every serve is a point."

Allgier also hopes to help Tech keep its defense focused longer aftersometimes having a tendency to fizzle out last season.

"We want to win every game that goes five sets," Allgier said.

In addition to her duties as volleyball coach, Allgier is also the IntramuralDirector for Tech.
