Kinsey Berger - Head Coach 

Coach Berger has been coaching volleyball for 9 years (wow time flies!). I got into coaching with a young club team, and I loved it so much I changed my major in college to education. It helped me realize that I enjoy working with children and would like a career down that path. Volleyball has always been my favorite sport, and I loved playing so much that I didn't want to stop being a part of it. I believe that being involved in youth sports allows these students the opportunity to build character and foster a love for volleyball. My years playing volleyball are times that I cherish. I loved being competitive, playing with my team, and improving my skills. Whether they know it or not, these years on the court go by too quickly but leave a lasting impact. Go Ladycats ❤️

Coach Rebecca Hughes - Assistant

Hello! This is my 2^nd year coaching with the Taylor Softball Program. The reason I went into coaching was that I wanted to give back to the student athletes at Taylor. Some of my best childhood and teenage memories were formed on the diamond.  So many life lessons can be applied to athletics which is why I am passionate about sharing my knowledge of softball with others. I am so thankful that Coach Berger is giving me the opportunity to share this passion of softball with the next generation of young ladies. Last year was a memorable one and we had some great times. I hope to keep that rolling into this season.
