STATESBORO – Georgia Southern volleyball coach Chad Willis announced today that Zach Harris will join his coaching staff as a volunteer assistant this season.
"We're thrilled to be adding Zach to our staff for the Fall," said Willis. "Zach is someone who's been working tirelessly behind the scenes for our program since we arrived last spring, and now that he's graduated, we're looking forward to having him join us—especially with his expertise in graphic design and creative media."
Harris will serve as the team's social media coordinator and assist with video and statistical analysis, practice planning and implementation and alumnae communication and outreach. Harris worked with the program last season as the design intern and produced various graphics for social media. He will transition into the graduate assistant role following a year as a volunteer.
"Zach has a passion for our sport and for Georgia Southern; he spent a number of hours in our gym throughout the fall and this spring so he's also familiar with our coaching style, expectations and overall vision moving forward," said Willis. "We're confident his knowledge, commitment and drive will be a valuable piece of our program's continued growth. We're excited to officially add Zach to our volleyball family for another two years."
"I have been involved with Georgia Southern volleyball since my freshman year, helping start the student section (Hanner Hectics), and then with my graphics design internship this past year," said Harris. "When Coach Willis called me about this opportunity to stay with the program for another two years in a more significant role, I was absolutely honored."
Georgia Southern is set to return 12 letterwinners and six starters from the 2019 team and scheduled to open the 2020 season in August.
