Alex Gettinger, one of UTA volleyball’s assistant coaches, serves up passion to the team as a lighthearted leader, with hamburger socks on the side.

With a complete staff reconstruction, Gettinger, alongside assistant coach Julianna Cramer and graduate assistant Alyssa Duran, supports head coach Tania Schatow by serving as a backbone to the program. Since his arrival in February, he has provided intentional one-on-one training, advice to players and more, always with a smile and a laugh.

Junior outside hitter Evyn Snook, who has entered her third year on the team, said Gettinger has brought a fresh perspective and introduced new elements to her game.
