Head Coach

Annette Caldwell

Coach Caldwell has been head coach of the women's volleyball program at USM since its revival in 1996 (with the exception of the 1998-99 season). Instrumental in the decision to bring volleyball back to USM, Caldwell has been faced with the challenge of mounting a successful program in a state with only limited volleyball in the high schools. The team is still in development but is working to reach Caldwell's goals both on and off the court.

Caldwell strongly believes in goal setting and feels the team has progressed well. She combines intense coaching which guides her players to meet their potential; at the same time, her enthusiasm and creativity help team members expand their collegiate experience to include life skills and values.

A USM alumna, Caldwell played volleyball for the university from 1984-87 and was team captain from 1985-87. She was a member of the state championship team of 1984.

Caldwell began her coaching career at Thomas College in Watervill where she led the lady Terriers to their first play-off bid. She was able to observe a successful Division I program for 18 months before returning to USM; she believes this opportunity as well as her own playing experience and coaching skills, will continue to move the USM Volleyball program in a positive direction.
