After leading WSU volleyball to a third consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance, Head Coach Jen Greeny has agreed to a new contract that will run through June 2024.

Director of Athletics Pat Chun announced the agreement Friday.

“We could not be more impressed with the ascension of Cougar volleyball under Jen Greeny,”  Chun said in a press release. “She has taken the program to levels not seen in nearly two decades.”

Greeny led the Cougars to a 23-10 record and the No. 16 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament this past season. WSU advanced to the Sweet Sixteen in this year’s tournament for the first time since 2002.

In eight seasons at WSU, Greeny has compiled an overall record of 132-130.
