Volleyball Coaching Changes.

Written Sunday April 14th at 11:25 PM

We do have some Volleyball coaching changes to talk about with one coach named at Royal Oak and another at North Farmington while another has departed Adams.

Harding Departs Adams.

The Adams Highlanders are now looking for a new Volleyball coach as coach Bridgette Harding has stepped down as confirmed by the Oakland Schools Website.

The job was posted as of April 8th.

Adams will be in the Red next season which will make the job that much harder.

Harding was at Adams since 2015 and has oversaw the team that grew and won the White crown in 2017. It will be interesting who coaches them next season. The Highlanders will be a team to watch in the White as they look to rebound from a tough season.

Royal Oak has their New Head Coach.

The Royal Oak Ravens will have a new Volleyball coach next fall. The Ravens have named Ciara Schultz to take over the program replacing Emily Burwinkle whom was at Royal Oak for two seasons.

Schultz was a setter at Oakland University and brings a ton of volleyball knowledge to a team that has been improving but hasn’t made that next step up as of yet.

The Ravens lost to Groves in the district semifinal last season.

It will be interesting to see what Schultz brings to Royal Oak this upcoming season. The Ravens will compete in the Blue which will be interesting to keep an eye on. If Royal Oak can buy in to Schultz’s system then the Ravens could be a team to watch for.

North Farmington has their New Head Coach.

The Raiders have a new head coach in Michael Love. Love takes over for Kat Hall who was at North Farmington since 2016.

Love coached at Harrison until the school closed this year. He has joined football coach Jon Herstein who changed from the Harrison green and gold to the Raiders brown and yellow.

North Farmington is expected to be one of the top contenders in the White this season joining the likes of Bloomfield Hills and Seaholm.

It will also be interesting how Love will get the returning girls who know Hall's system and adjust to his system and how he operates.

Stay tuned to OAA Now for the latest on these developing stories.
