USC Trojans Women's Volleyball History & Archive

Overview

USC has won six national crowns in women’s volleyball, the first four under head coach Chuck Erbe. Erbe—who dominated the sport during his 12-year USC coaching tenure which began in 1976—posted a career record of 310-121-3 (.718). His 1977 team registered the first perfect season (38-0) in collegiate women’s volleyball history.

Lisa Love took over for Erbe in 1989 and guided USC into the NCAA tournament in nine of her 10 seasons before retiring after the 1998 season. Jerritt Elliott served as interim head coach in 1999 and 2000 and guided the 2000 club to the NCAA national semifinal. AVCA Hall of Famer Mick Haley— head coach of the 2000 U.S. women’s Olympic team—took over in 2001. In 2002 and 2003, Haley’s teams won NCAA championships, with the 2003 club going 35-0. USC also reached the NCAA national semifinals in 2004, 2007, 2010, and 2011. Brent Crouch took over in 2018 and served as head coach for two seasons. Former USC men’s volleyball assistant coach Brad Keller took the reins in 2020 and led the Trojans to their 40th NCAA tournament appearance in 2024.

Debbie Green (1978), April Ross (2004), Alex Jupiter (2011) and Samantha Bricio (2015) won the Honda Award in volleyball. Trojans have been first-team All-Americans 48 times and have made Olympic rosters 24 times, including Green, Sue Woodstra, Paula Weishoff, Carolyn Becker, Kim Ruddins, and Nicole Davis.
