Glen Lietzke 2018 American Volleyball Coaches Association Hall of Fame
"Glen Lietzke has been a visionary in the volleyball coaching world, always dreaming about what more he and others could be doing to improve the sport. His list of accolades is numerous, but pale in comparison to the countless players he’s had a positive influence on over his 35-year coaching career. After brief stints at Hopkins Eisenhower High School, the University of Wisconsin at River Falls, and Southwest Missouri State, he began the next phase of his coaching career that put him on the hall of fame path. In 1984, he founded and is the current Director and President of the Austin Juniors Volleyball Board of Directors. That same year, he became an assistant coach at the University of Texas, where he went on to win 12 conference titles and the NCAA Championship in his 18-year stint with the Longhorns. With Austin Juniors, Lietzke was crowned a USA Junior National Champion twice in 2007 and 2011 as the 17 Open Head Coach. His club offers girls and boys indoor as well as beach, with college commitments and alumni spanning the nation. For his incredible contributions, he received USA Volleyball’s George J. Fisher Leader in Volleyball Award in 1998. “It’s obvious when watching Glen coach his teams that he is deeply respected and sincerely loved by his players, and completely immersed in every facet of the match,” said Texas A&M Head Coach Laurie Corbelli. “Glen has mentored hundreds of coaches, players, and administrators in volleyball, and I can’t think of another United States Club Director who has had such an amazing positive impact on so many lives.”"
