Phoebe Havenaar joined the Davidson volleyball program as volunteer assistant coach in March 2020.
Havenaar is a former standout at Division II power Wingate University.
“Phoebe is an excellent fit for the Davidson volleyball program,” said head coach Chris Willis. “Her All-American experience at Wingate and desire to pass along her knowledge will add value to our program. From the first day I met Phoebe, I knew that her personality would translate to the coaching world and to the culture we’re developing at Davidson. She has a bright future ahead, and I can’t wait to see wait to see the mark she leaves on our program.”
A native of Naperville, Ill., Havenaar graduated magna cum laude from Wingate in 2019, with a degree in sport management. Her last two seasons, she earned all-conference honors in the South Atlantic Conference and NCAA All-Region recognition. A middle blocker, she was named an AVCA Third-Team All American in 2018 with 3.28 kills per set and a .333 hitting percentage.
“I am so excited to be joining the Davidson volleyball coaching staff for the upcoming season,” said Havenaar. “I feel prepared and motivated to be a part of a high-level experience here at Davidson. I've got a ton of respect for the team, and it's an amazing opportunity that I get to work alongside Aubrey Marsellis, Chris and their student-athletes.”
After graduation, Havenaar worked as marketing director and associate event coordinator at Charlotte-based SportsLink.
