AUSTIN, Texas – Three-time Olympic Medalist and captain of the 2020 U.S. Olympic Gold Medal winning team, Jordan Larson is joining the Texas Volleyball staff as an assistant coach. Larson was a three-time All-American at Nebraska (2005-08) and member of the 2006 National Championship team. Larson replaces Tonya Johnson, who accepted the head coach position at LSU.
"This is a home run hire," head coach Jerritt Elliott said. "To have the most accomplished outside hitter in the history of USA Volleyball come be part of our program is so exciting. For our athletes that aspire to be part of the national team to have someone that eats, drinks and sleeps volleyball will be an incredible opportunity.
