Last week, when USA Volleyball announced that Karch Kiraly is the new head coach of
the US Women’s National Team, setter
Courtney Thompson was on her way to
Europe
.
Now that Thompson is settling in with her new pro team in the
central Poland city of Łódź, she tells Volleyblog
Seattle, via email, how she views Kiraly’s appointment:
“I am beyond thrilled that Karch will be our head coach moving into the next quad. He is simply one of the best people I have ever known, and someone I look forward to working with every day I walk into the gym.
“Karch is a teacher, a motivator, a competitor, and is willing to do whatever necessary to help the team win. I think the program has the opportunity to do some really special things in the next four years, and am extremely excited that Karch will be leading us. I'd follow him into battle any day.”
