So incredibly blessed to announce my commitment to Messiah University to continue my academic and athletic career in volleyball! I never thought I would be making this post, but God’s plans are so much greater than my own. As soon as I stepped on campus and met the team, I knew this was where God was calling me to be, even though it wasn’t part of my plan. Looking back, I can see His hand in every step of this journey, and I couldn’t be more grateful.

First, I want to thank my mom, who has been my coach for as long as I can remember. Thank you for pouring countless hours into me, believing in me, pushing me to be my best, and teaching me that success comes through hard work, discipline, and trusting God.

To my dad, thank you for being my greatest role model. You have built such a strong foundation in my life, teaching me what it means to lead with humility, serve others, and keep Christ at the center of everything I do.

Thank you to every coach who has invested in me throughout the years. Each of you has helped shape me into the player and person I am today, and I am so grateful for your time, encouragement, and belief in me.

Coach Holly, thank you for believing in me and giving me this incredible opportunity. From the moment I stepped on campus, I felt so welcomed, and I can’t wait to be part of everything God is doing through this program.

Most importantly, I want to thank the Lord. Thank You for every opportunity You have given me, for guiding my life every step of the way, and for having Your hand in every part of this journey. Thank You for always being faithful and for keeping Your promises, even when I couldn’t see Your plan. This commitment is a reminder that Your plans are always greater than mine, and that You truly work everything together for good for those who love You. All glory belongs to You.

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.” Colossians 3:23–24

After 8 unforgettable years, it’s time for me to officially “retire” from coaching volleyball. 
This past week at AAU Nationals marked the end of our season, and something even bigger for me. It was the last tournament for my team, and the very last tournament I’ll ever coach. It’s hard to put into words what this journey has meant to me.

When I joined @fusion_vbc eight years ago, I never could have imagined the impact it would have on my life. To the #FusionFamily, thank you for welcoming me with open arms and making me feel like I truly belonged from day one. The friendships, memories, and experiences I’ve gained will stay with me forever.

A very special thank you to the Shultz family for treating me like one of your own. Your kindness, support, and friendship have meant more than you’ll ever know.

@shultztj , thank you for eight incredible years of coaching together. I’ve learned so much from you, not just about volleyball, but about leadership, passion, and what it means to invest in young athletes. It’s been an honor to coach alongside you, and I’m grateful for everything you’ve taught me.

To every player I’ve had the privilege of coaching: thank you for trusting me, challenging me, making me laugh, and reminding me why I fell in love with this sport. Watching you grow as athletes and as people has been the greatest reward.

There were countless practices, road trips, tournaments, victories, tough losses, and moments that tested us, but every single one helped shape this incredible chapter of my life.

While this chapter is coming to an end, the memories and relationships will last a lifetime. I’ll always be cheering for Fusion, for the athletes, and for everyone who makes this club so special.

Thank you, Fusion Volleyball Club, for eight years I’ll never forget. Walking away is bittersweet, but my heart is full of gratitude for everyone who made this journey so meaningful.

With love and a hand hug, Coach Casey 💙🏐
