It seemed like a routine win for Bobbi Petersen and the Panthers Friday night, defeating the Indian State Sycamores 3-0, but the win cemented Coach Petersen in the record books, clinching her 500th career win.
Petersen becomes only the third MVC volleyball coach to captures 500 or more wins. She bolsters her already impressive resume of ranking in the top 10 of active Division 1 coaches in winning percentages and two NCAA Sweet 16 appearances. But for Coach Petersen, volleyball has never been about becoming the winningest coach or stacking up wins. It's about the journey along the way.
