"We are extremely excited for Khaila to join us as Head Women's Volleyball Coach," Dodson said. "She exhibits tremendous energy and passion, and will bring a new spirit to revitalize our program. Khaila was a women's volleyball player at a two-year school, and can relate to the journeys of our student-athletes. I believe Khaila has the unique ability to communicate with our student-athletes to teach them to improve daily. She also not just focused on their athletic skills she wants to help them create lifelong habits and characteristics."
