2 GOLDEN BEARS COACHING STAFF HEAD COACH BRADY STARKEY - 10th season overall, NSIC - 5-time NCAA Champion (2007, 08, 09, 10, 11) - 30-match active NCAA postseason win streak - 10-time NSIC Champion In his 10th year as head coach at Concordia, three-time AVCA National Coach of the Year Brady Starkey and his staff have turned the squad into a premier program in the country. The Golden Bears have captured NCAA Division II Championships in five consecutive seasons - the only NCAA volleyball program to accomplish the feat at the Division I or II levels. Their five total volleyball titles is more than any program as well, with the sport dating back to 1980 at the women s Division II level. Among the five championships, they ve won on neutral floors (2007, 2010), their home floor in front of standing-room only crowds (2008, 2009) and on the road in front of a capacity crowd (2011). Their championships have come in the eastern, central and pacific time zones. Their first national championship in 2007 was the first women s team NCAA Division II championship in the history of the Northern Sun and just the second overall team national championship. In his nine seasons, Starkey s teams have captured the Northern Sun championship every season, reached the NCAA Tournament and advanced to the region championship (also known as Sweet Sixteen) match all nine years. They ve captured seven region championships, punching a ticket to the NCAA Elite Eight each time. In four NSIC Tournaments, the Golden Bears captured three of the championships (2004, 05, 06). The team has produced at least 32 wins in all nine campaigns including a perfect 37-0 dream season in 2009 that culminated with their third straight national title, winning on their home floor at Gangelhoff Center for the second year in a row. He s coached some of the top players in NCAA Division II volleyball history, including two-time AVCA Player of the Year Maggie McNamara - the all-time assists record holder for Division II volleyball (total assists, and assists/set). McNamara, named the Honda Division II Female Athlete of the Year after her senior year (2009), was the first of four AVCA National Freshman of the Year under Starkey (McNamara, Emily Palkert, Amanda Konetchy, Katie Habeck). The team also featured one of the top-9 finalists, Mary Slinger, for the NCAA Woman of the Year award for the academic year, featuring the top female student-athletes from around the country across all three divisions and all women s sports sanctioned by the NCAA. The program has also featured eight CoSIDA/Capital One Academic All-Americans and 68 NSIC All-Academic student-athletes. Starkey was named head coach after serving as an assistant for Concordia for three seasons under Geoff Carlston. Carlston, now a head coach at Ohio State University and previously the head coach at Ohio University, has coached six teams to the NCAA Tournament at the Division I level. Together, Starkey assisted Carlston in rebuilding a volleyball program that was 0-18 in Northern Sun play the year before they arrived. By their third year working with the program, the Golden Bears achieved their first-ever national ranking and finished 24-9 with a 13-5 mark in league play. Before coming to Concordia, Starkey spent five seasons as an assistant coach at the University of St. Thomas. While at St. Thomas, the Tommies finished in the top four in the MIAC and won the conference title in During the 1998 season, Starkey had co-head coaching responsibilities with his wife, Penny. Starkey began his coaching career in 1992 as an assistant coach at Minnetonka High School, where he worked with the b-squad and junior varsity teams. He spent a number of years with the 17-open team of Minnesota One Junior Olympics and currently coaches the 17 s team at Minnesota One. Starkey earned his undergraduate degree in history from Metropolitan State University in He and Penny are the parents of two daughters, Teagan Shea and Kayli Jade.
