Our Coaches Corner series continues this week with Carly Dockendorf, who is going into her 2nd season  as the head coach at Utah. Last season — in their final season in the Pac 12 conference — the Utes won the Pac 12 Championship title for the 4th consecutive year and went on to finish third at the NCAA Championships. As they gear up for their first season in the Big 12 conference, we sat down with Carly to talk about some of the new faces on the team this season — including how they snagged Ana Padurariu from their longtime rival UCLA. We also talk about lessons Carly learned from her first season as a head coach and what she feels the team needs to do to take their post season performance to the next level.

Our Coaches Corner series continues this week with Bev Plocki, who is going into her 36th season as the head coach of the Michigan Wolverines. This season Michigan is looking to return back to the top of the Big Ten – a place they are very familiar with, having won all but six Big Ten titles in the last 32 years. Michigan has lost some star athletes who made huge contributions in the last 4-5 seasons, but is bringing in the top freshman class in the country to help fill the holes left behind. We were super thankful to have the chance to watch practice on Oct. 29 to see what the team has been up to, but also chat with Bev about what we can expect from the many new faces on her team.

Our Coaches Corner series continues this week with Mike Rowe, who led the Michigan State Spartans to a second consecutive Big Ten Regular Season title last season, as well as the first Big Ten Championship in program history. The Spartans only lost 1 lineup routine from last season and are expected to continue to rise with the addition of some talented freshmen and few other new faces stepping it up in the gym. We visited MSU on October 25 to watch practice and talk with Mike about what fans can expect this season.
