Presbyterian College and the Blue Hose athletic department have announced Maddie Moss as the new head coach of the PC volleyball program.
A former collegiate team captain and standout student-athlete at Lander University, Moss brings a strong background in player development, recruiting, and program management, with coaching experience ranging from the NCAA Division I level to youth development leagues.
"Coach Moss brings a new level of energy and excitement to our program," Said Presbyterian Director of Athletics Dee Nichols. "Her devotion to the game and passion to develop our student-athletes on and off the court align with our mission and values for Blue Hose Athletics. With her leadership and volleyball acumen, Coach Moss will continue to move the needle and will elevate this talented group of players to achieve championship level success.
Moss takes over a program that advanced to the 2024 Big South Tournament semifinals and returns 11 letterwinners, including junior opposite/outside hitter Courtney Williams, a 2024 Second Team All-Big South selection.
Before taking over at the helm of the Blue Hose, Moss spent the last two years as a member of the coaching staff at the University of West Georgia. She was responsible for overseeing practice plans, specializing in setter training, managing team analytics and film review, and contributing to recruiting efforts. She played an active role in match preparation and opponent scouting, while also gaining valuable administrative experience in budgeting, travel coordination, and gear management.
While at UWG, Moss guided two student-athletes to First and Second Team All-GSC honors during the program's final season at the Division II level. She helped lead the team to the 2023 Gulf South Conference Tournament before the Wolves transitioned to Division I and joined the Atlantic Sun Conference in 2024. In their ASUN debut, Moss played a key role in coaching the program's first Division I All-Conference honoree, who earned a spot on the Third Team.
Beyond her time at UWG, she has held various coaching roles, including head club coach for the Emerald City Juniors Volleyball Club, and youth coach with Birmingham Volleyball Club's Court Crashers program, all while mentoring athletes as a private lessons instructor.
Moss played collegiate volleyball at Lander University, where she served as a team captain and was a steady contributor both on and off the court. Over four seasons, she helped lead the Bearcats to 57 wins, including 25 in Peach Belt Conference play, and contributed to multiple PBC Tournament runs. In 2022, she played an integral role for the squad that earned Lander its first NCAA Southeast Regional appearance since 2018.
Off the court, Moss excelled academically. She graduated in 2023 with a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science and a minor in Healthcare Management. A four-time Peach Belt Conference Academic Distinction honoree, she also earned CSC Academic All-District recognition in 2022, and was a consistent presence on the Dean's and President's Lists.
She recently completed her Master's in Sports Management at the University of West Georgia.
"I couldn't be more excited to step into this role as head volleyball coach at PC," said coach Moss. "This program has incredible potential, and I am excited to work with this exceptional and talented group. My goal is to create a competitive, supportive, and energetic environment for these athletes to thrive on the court and in the classroom. I'm ready to get to work and make an impact on the Blue Hose family and create something special."
