SEASON OUTLOOK 

4 


For the first five years of its existence 

the Missouri S&T volleyball program 

played the role of the hunter. After a successful 

2011 campaign the Lady Miners 

find themselves in a different position, The 

Hunted. 

S&T heads into the 2012 season as 

the favorites to win the Great Lakes Valley 

Conference's West Division, after winning 

the title in 2011, and even received 

24 votes in the American Volleyball 

Coaches Association's pre-season Top 25 

poll. 

With a majority of his team returning 

from last season's 24-10 team head 

coach Jason Holt knows the bar has been 

raised for this season. 

“We lost six great players from last fall's 

championship team, three of which were 

starters and huge leaders for the program 

over the years,” Holt said. 

“However, I am extremely confident in 

this 2012 squad and with what each returning, 

new player and coach brings to 

the court. They are all very talented, hard 

working, passionate about what they do 

and hate to lose. They all want to stay on 

top.” 

The Miners have to replace the production 

of Erin Bekebrede (St. Charles, 

Mo./St. Charles), who earned First Team 

All-GLVC and Second Team All-Midwest 

Region honors last season, and Kit 

Spears (Valley Center, Kan./Valley Center), 

but have the pieces in place to do so. 

The following is a look at the 

2012 Miner Volleyball lineup by 

position: 

OUTSIDE HITTERS 

HAYLEY 

WRIGHT 

Junior Hayley Wright (Omaha, 

Neb./Millard West HS), sophomore Alison 

Mueller (Bartelso, Ill./Mater Dei HS) 

and freshman Torrie Rupe (Wichita, 

Kan./Wichita Collegiate HS) are in the 

mix to take over for the Miner’s all-time kill 

leader, Bekebrede, at the outside hitter's 

spot in 2012. 

Wright, a returning starter, played in all 

33 matches last season and was fourth 

on the team in kills and points averaging 

2.18 and 2.37 per set. She owns a very 

explosive jump and a powerful arm swing, 

which will help the Miners to score points 

lost with the graduation of Bekebrede. 

Mueller, who saw action last season appearing 

in 16 matches and recorded 72 

kills in 34 sets played for an average of 

2.12 per set, is an extremely talented left 

side who will challenge for a starting spot 

right away. Holt is very excited about 

Mueller’s potential for the future in this position 

because of her great arm swing and 

shot selection. 

Rupe enjoyed a stellar prep career at 

Collegiate. The versatile athlete played at 

both the middle and outside hitter positions 

during her career. Her experience 

both in the front and back courts make

her an excellent six-rotation option for Holt 

this season. 

RIGHT SIDE HITTERS 

At the right pin position Holt is counting 

on three very solid options this season to 

take over for Spears. They include, senior 

and former Miner Volleyball and Lady 

Miner Basketball player Julie Meyer 

(Marthasville, Mo./St. Francis Borgia HS), 

returning sophmore Katie McDonald (Orland 

Park, Ill./Providence Catholic HS) and 

incoming freshman Andrea Roach (Littleton, 

Colo./Thunderridge HS). 

Meyer was an outside hitter her first 

two years, during the 2008 & 2009 seasons, 

before deciding to focus on basketball. 

In her two seasons in a Miner 

Volleyball uniform, the 5’10 Meyer, was 

one of the best hitters in program history. 

She currently sits third all-time in career 

kills with 748, attack attempts with 2036 

and total points scored with 865.5. She 

is also currently sixth in digs with 588. 

McDonald saw limited action last season 

appearing in only eight matches but 

had five kills in her 10 sets played. The former 

middle hitter, is a tall and explosive 

hitter and blocker, giving Holt excellent 

depth. 

Roach, a lefty, the first in program history, 

will be used as depth in both the right 

side hitter and setter positions, She was a 

first team All-Continental Conference selection 

as a senior putting up some impressive 

numbers. She dished out 357 

assists while recording 85 kills, 82 digs, 

55 total blocks and 15 service aces. 

MIDDLE HITTERS 

A position that has become a their 

biggest strength in 2012, is the middle 

hitter position. Sophomore Jackie 

Zellmer (Nixa, Mo./Nixa HS) leads the 

charge and is joined by senior Kelly Kosmopolis 

(O'Fallon, Ill./O'Fallon Township 

HS) and newcomers freshman Krista 

Haslag (Jefferson City, Mo./Helias

HS). 

Zellmer had an extremely impressive 

freshman campaign for S&T appearing in 

all 34 matches, and earning herself a 

Second Team All-GLVC selection. She finished 

second on the team in kills with 

320, while also leading the team with a 

hitting percentage of .281 and in service 

aces with 47, a new Miner single season 

record. She also had 97 total blocks, third 

highest total in a season in Miner history. 

Kosmopolis, a junior transfer in 2011, 

appeared in 20 matches last season averaging 

1.14 kills per set and had 34 total 

blocks. The 5-8 middle is extremely explosive 

off the floor both offensively and defensively. 

Look for her to challenge for 

time and perhaps a starting spot right 

away. 

The extremely physical and talented 

Haslag, had a stellar interscholastic career 

at Helias HS, putting up impressive 

numbers during her three years with the 

Crusaders. She holds school records for 

attack percentage (.308), kill percentage 

(.509), solo blocks (50), block assists (76) 

and total blocks (126). She was a first 

team all-state, all-region and all-district selection. 

Moon, a transfer from Westminster 

College, had 280 kills last season for the 

Blue Jays in 112 sets helping lead Westminster 

to its second straight St. Louis Intercollegiate 

Athletic Conference 

tournament appearance and earning her 

a First Team All-SLIAC selection. Although 

Holt is extremely excited about the extremely 

talented Moon, look for him to 

redshirt Moon to save eligibility since this 

position is so deep. 

SETTERS 

DEF. SPECIALISTS/ 

LIBEROS 

The Miners biggest strength for the entire 

history of the program will continue to 

be a major strength in 2012. The backline 

of the defense for the Miners is arguably 

one of the best back courts in the 

GLVC and in all of Division II. A pair of seniors 

will lead the way... Jocelyn DeMotte 

(Topeka, Kan./Hayden HS) and Jennifer 

Kegler (Ballwin, Mo./Cor Jesu Acad.) 

along with sophomore Emily Jaeger (St. 

Louis, Mo./St. Joseph's Acad.) and freshman 

Morgan Smith (Nixa, Mo./Nixa HS). 

DeMotte enters the 2012 season as 

the returning starting libero from last season, 

where she appeared in every match 

and finished with 572 digs (4.43 per set) 

to along with 30 aces. She was a First 

Team All-GLVC and Second Team Midwest-Region 

selection. 

Kegler, as super senior after redshirting 

the 2010 season, enters this fall as 

the top defensive specialist. She also appeared 

in every match last season finishing 

with an average of 3.27 digs/set 

(422 digs) and 25 aces. She currently 

sits third all-time in digs, and is only 204 

digs from becoming only the second 

player in Miner history to go over 1,000 

JOCELYN 

DEMOTTE 



JENNIFER 

COSTELLO 

career digs. Look for her to break that 

barrier by mid-season this fall. 

The speedy, 5-8 Jaeger enters as a 

great ball control option for Holt this fall, 

after proving herself last season, appearing 

in every match but one last year and 

finishing with 220 digs (2.04/set). Look 

for Jaeger, who’s sister Liz is an outside 

hitter for GLVC rival Missouri-St. Louis, to 

see time in any of the three back row rotations 

this fall. 

Smith will provide some excellent depth 

as well. Smith, who also has a sister, Alex, 

who is an outside hitter in the GLVC playing 

for Drury, played for three years at 

Nixa High and finished her senior season 

with 496 digs, 33 aces, 19 kills and seven 

assists for the Eagles. Smith is extremely 

athletic, fast with outstanding ball control 

both on defense and serve receive. She 

will be a great bench option for the Miners 

and along with Jaeger, great future libero 

options for the Miners. 

SCHEDULE 

The Miners will have a tough schedule 

to contend with in 2012, but Holt feels 

that with the squad he has they'll be able 

to handle the pressure. They'll play three 

teams ranked in the pre-season Top 25 

poll: at Central Missouri (Sept. 11), Lewis 

(Oct. 7) and at Indianapolis (Oct. 21). In addition 

to those three games, they'll also 

play four matches against teams in the 

receiving votes categories. 

“We've set high goals for ourselves,” 

Holt said. “Last season we got a taste of 

postseason life, and now we are hungry 

for more. The talent, drive and determination 

are all there. It's time to prove that 

2011 wasn't a fluke, but rather the start 

of winning ways and multiple postseason 

appearances for the Miners.” 

S&T opens its season this Friday 

against Florida Southern at 2 p.m. (Central 

Time) in the Western Oregon Invite in 

Monmouth, Ore. The first home contest 

of the season will be on Friday, Sept. 7, 

against Upper Iowa at 2 p.m., in the Days 

Inn/Super 8 Middle of Everywhere Classic.

Coming into 2011 Season (Sophomore): 

Meyer, a former two-sport athlete for the Lady Miners, returns 

to the volleyball court after two years of focusing on basketball 

... In her first two seasons of volleyball, she wrote the record 

books, and looks to add to those totals in 2012 to finish her collegiate 

athletic career ... Although moved from the left side to 

the right side, look for Meyer to be a dominating threat for the 

Miners, both offensively and defensively ... Currently ranks third 

in career kills (748), attack attempts (2036) and points 

(865.6), sixith in digs (588) as well as eighth in total blocks

Wright made huge contributions on the outside for the Miners

... With a very explosive approach and an aggressive arm 

swing, she will again be an big gun on the left pin for the Miners

Although McDonald played sparingly during her freshman

side but as well as in the middle ... McDonald had an outstanding

great starting options and/or depth on the right side and in 

the middle.

This could be a big breakout year for the athletic sophomore 

outside. After earning limited time as a freshmen backing up 

senior All-GLVC outside Erin Bekebrede and Wright last fall, it 

is now Mueller’s turn to show off her talents on the left pin ... 

Look for Mueller to push Wright for the top outside spot, or 

earn the second starting spot ... She brings a powerful and aggressive 

arm swing with a solid block at the net, and once 

she finds consistency in her passing and ball control, there will 

be no stopping this sophomore sensation.

Enters this fall hungry to play after a stellar freshman season 

in the fall of 2011, but a spring of recovery from a shoulder 

surgery that sidelined the All-GLVC middle ... Zellmer is a returning 

starting middle, but will definitely see challenge from 

a middle corps that got incredibly stronger in 2012 with the 

return of Kosmopolis and the addition of transfer Gracey 

Moon and freshman Krista Haslag ... Look for Zellmer to continue 

to show why she was the top young middle in the GLVC

Wright and Mueller ... She brings outstanding ball control

2012 GLVC-GLIAC CROSSOVER 

TOURNAMENT 

For the fifth consecutive season, Miner volleyball will travel to the 

GLVC-GLIAC Crossover Tournament, on October 12th-13th. 

For the third year, this spectatular event will take place at the 

Great Lakes Center Volleyball facility in Aurora, Ill., a suburb of 

Chicago. 

The 16-team Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) and the 

16-team Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC, 

below), make up the Great Lakes region of NCAA Division II 

volleyball. 

All 32 teams will battle it out against each other again 

over the two-day event, which is said to be the largest collegiate 

volleyball tournament in the country at any level. 

Each team will play three teams from the opposing conference to help determine 

regional rankings for post-season play. Whichever conference wins the most 

number of matches, take home the perpetual Crossover trophy and bragging 

rights for the next year. The four-year series is tied, 2-2, after the GLVC won for the 

second consecutive year, following the GLIAC winning three first two events. The 

playing schedule for the tournament will be seeded one-week prior to the tournament.

Miner Volleyball joined rest of the Missouri S&T sports programs 

– with the exception of swimming – in the Great 

Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) in 2007, along with 

some of the top NCAA Division II volleyball programs in 

the country. The GLVC has made its name throughout 

the last 28 years as a power in Division II basketball. 

In the last few years, however, the GLVC has 

seen success in many sports. 

The formation of the GLVC can be traced as far 

back as 1972 when the athletic directors of three member 

schools – Kentucky Wesleyan, Bellarmine, and Indiana State 

University at Evansville (now the University of Southern Indiana) 

– began preliminary discussions about forming a 

basketball conference. Four years later, the University of Indianapolis 

and Saint Joseph’s College expressed interest. 

On July 7, 1978, those schools – along with Ashland University 

– united to become the GLVC. 

Since formulation of the conference, 13 schools have 

joined the league: Lewis (1980), Indiana-Purdue at Fort 

Wayne (1984), Northern Kentucky (1985), Kentucky 

State (1989), Quincy (1994), Southern Illinois Edwardsville 

(1994), Wisconsin-Parkside (1994), Missouri-St. Louis 

(1995), Drury (2005), Rockhurt (2005), Missouri S&T 

(2005), Illinois-Springfield and Maryville (2009), William 

Jewell College in 2011 and now McKendree University 

from Illinois, in 2012. 

Ashland and Kentucky State left the conference after 

the 1994 season, while IPFW left the league following the 

2000-01 academic year. Two institutions in recent years 

exited the GLVC when they moved from the NCAA Division 

II level to Division I, Southern Illinois-Edwardsville in 2008, 

and recently, Northern Kentucky this year.

The GLVC can claim school’s in many of the Midwest’s major media markets, with 

schools in Milwaukee/Northern Illinois (UW-Parkside), Chicago (Lewis), Indianapolis (Indianapolis), 

Louisville (Bellarmine), Evansville (Southern Indiana), Owensboro (Kentucky 

Wesleyan), Kansas City (Rockhurt), Springfield (Mo.) (Drury), Springfield (Ill. ) (Ill.-Springfield) 

and St. Louis (Missouri-St. Louis & Maryville). 

With the addition of the new sponsorship of football in the GLVC in the fall of 2012, 

the conference now sponsors 18 championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, soccer, indoor and 

outdoor track and field, and tennis for men, and basketball, cross country, softball, soccer, tennis, indoor and outdoor track 

and field, golf, and volleyball for women.

#3 seed into the GLVC Tournament hosted by the University of Indianapolis. This 

was the Miners first post season appearance in their short five-season history. Missouri 

S&T faced #6 seed Missouri-St. Louis, beating the Tritons in straight sets for 

the Miners first post season victory in program history. The Miners were beaten in 

the conference semi-finals by Lewis University 1-3. 

With the victory over UMSL in the GLVC Tournament the Miners secured their spot 

in the NCAA Midwest Regional Championships. The Miners headed to Hillsdale, 

Michigan to face the host Colts in the first round of the NCAA Tournament for the 

first appearance in program history. The #1 seed Hillsdale was too much for the 

Miners, who lost 1-3 to end their season. 

The Miners finished their 2011 season with their best record ever, 24-10 overall and 

15-3 in the GLVC.

ABOUT MISSOURI S&T... 

Missouri University of Science and 

Technology is one of the nation’s top technological 

research universities - a campus 

where discovery, innovation and 

creativity are the norm. 

Known for its engineering programs, 

Missouri S&T also offers degrees in the 

sciences, liberal arts, humanities and 

business. About 7,000 students are currently 

enrolled in classes, making S&T big 

enough to accommodate a diverse population 

but small enough for individuals to 

stand out. 

S&T students are expected to actively 

participate in the processes of getting an 

education, whether that means 

joining a student design team, participating 

on Miner athletics 

teams, conducting research with 

faculty members, helping to assure 

safe drinking water in a Central 

American community, or 

planning activities for the campus’s 

next St. Pat’s celebration. 

Upon graduation, these experienced 

students are in extremely 

high demand by companies 

across the nation and around the 

world. 

Without exceptional faculty 

members and involved alumni, it 

wouldn’t be possible to give these students a world-class education. The campus currently 

employs astronauts, bridge builders, chemists, film makers, historians, pyrotechnicians, 

rocket scientists, solar energy experts and video bloggers. S&T 

graduates, many of whom give time and money back to the university, work 

on the International Space 

Station, play professional 

poker, run NASCAR teams, 

search for cancer cures, 

win Academy Awards and 

lead Fortune 500 companies. 

S&T is a campus in motion. 

With more than 200 

student organizations on 

campus, there’s a place for 

everyone to get involved. 

Students can be seen pedaling 

human powered vehicles 

in the shadow of 

Toomey Hall, the new mechanical 

and aerospace 

engineering complex, 

or building solar-powered 

cars and houses.

DR. CHERYL SCHRADER became 

chancellor of Missouri University of Science 

and Technology (Missouri S&T) on 

April 2, 2012. A former president of the 

IEEE Control Systems Society, with more 

than 10,000 members worldwide, 

Schrader is one of the few female engineers 

to ascend to the top leadership position 

of a college or university in the 

United States. She is the 21st leader in 

Missouri S&T’s 141-year history. DR. CHERYL 

SCHRADER 

Previously, Schrader was associate Chancellor 

vice president for strategic research initiatives at Boise State 

University, a position she held from February 2011 until her 

appointment as S&T chancellor. While dean of Boise State’s 

College of Engineering from 2003 to 2011, the college’s undergraduate 

engineering enrollment increased by 60 percent, 

graduate enrollment increased by 36 percent, and funding 

for research grants and contracts in the college more than 

tripled. 

Schrader earned a bachelor of science degree in electrical 

engineering from Valparaiso University in Valparaiso, Ind., in 

1984. She earned a master of science and Ph.D. degrees in 

electrical engineering from the University of Notre Dame in

Schrader began her teaching and research career at the 

University of Notre Dame while undertaking internships and 

consulting work with McDonnell Douglas Astronautics Co. in 

the early 1980s and Chimera Research in the early 1990s. 

Following a brief period as an adjunct assistant professor at 

Rice University in 1991, Schrader moved to the University of 

Texas at San Antonio, where she rose to serve as a tenured 

professor of electrical engineering and associate dean at both 

a college of sciences and a college of engineering. She then

student affairs staff in 1980 as a 

counseling psychologist. She later 

was assistant and associate director 

of the S&T Counseling Center 

and served as director of S&T’s 

Center for Personal and Professional 

Development from 1990 through 2001. 

DR. DEBRA

In 2001, she was appointed associate vice chancellor 

for student and international affairs. She is responsible 

for directing Missouri S&T’s leadership development programs, 

coordinating administrative functions within the 

division, coordinating staff development and training efforts, 

and managing relationships with external constituents. 

She also serves as an adjunct faculty member 

in the engineering management department. 

Robinson earned her bachelor of arts degree in psychology 

from the University of Illinois-Springfield in 1976 

and her master of arts and doctorate degrees in counseling 

psychology from the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana 

in 1977 and 1980, respectively.
