Chuck Rey is in his first season as assistant coach.
Rey comes to Statesboro after successful stints as head coach of the Low Country Volleyball Club and as assistant coach at Bluffton (S.C.) High School.
Rey's duties will include: working with the setters; creation and implementation of effective match, practice, conditioning, and nutrition plans; recruiting and assisting with travel preparation.
“We're really excited to have Chuck be a part of our program,” said McCray. “He brings great enthusiasm and a love for the game that is very hard to find. The girls have really opened up to him and he's been great in the gym and in the office. He has a lot of qualities that I look for in an assistant coach.
Serving as LCVC's head coach since 2003, he led the team to six top-three finishes in the last three years, including wins in the Gold Division at an USAV Palmetto Region Tournament and the Power Division at the 2007 USAV Palmetto Region Championships.
In 2007 alone, he guided the squad to one first place finish, two second place finishes (Gold Division, AAU Classic Tournament at Disney; Silver Division, Peachtree Classic) and a third place result (Open Division, USAV Palmetto Region Championships). All accomplishments are the highest finishes in the history of the club. He has also served as a board member for the Club since 2004.
From 2004-06 Rey was the assistant coach at Bluffton High. In their inaugural season, the Bobcats were crowned Region VIII champions and were Region VIII State runners-up in 2005 and Region VIII Lower State champions in 2006. During his tenure BHS accumulated a record of 57-18.
In all three seasons Rey coached at Bluffton, the team received the AVCA Academic Achievement Award for maintaining a team GPA of 3.3 or higher. Only 125 high school teams in the nation achieved this distinguished award.
"I am extremely excited to be coaching at Georgia Southern University and working with head coach Nicole McCray,” said Rey. “She has great passion, energy, and a demand for excellence that pushes the team to be their best. I am confident the program will return to its winning ways and be successful for many years to come."
In addition to his coaching career, Rey worked 10 years in international business. He was the President of Ship e, Inc. from 2001-03 where he managed a 25,000 square foot distribution center and an upper-level management team, and from 2003-06 he served as the Vice President of Lifetime Marketing, Inc., selling direct mail marketing pieces to Fortune 500 companies and implementing proprietary order entry, credit card processing, and shipping systems.
As a player Rey was a setter for the Arizona State club team from 1991-94 that achieved a third-place finish at the Club Nationals in 1994.
Rey has been a member of the AVCA since 2005 and is USAV CAP I and IMPACT certified.
He is a 1996 graduate of Roosevelt (Ill.) University with a B.A. in marketing.
