Assistant Coach: Bill Scott<br />

A familiar sight on the Lady Saints bench, Coach Scott brings extensive coaching and playing<br />

experience to the team. After a long, successful career at the prep level, he brings enormous energy,<br />

enthusiasm and technical knowledge of the game with him to <strong>Limestone</strong>. In addition to his coaching<br />

acumen, Scott has played at a very high level for many years, in both indoor and outdoor volleyball.<br />

He will assist in all facets of the program.<br />

Volunteer Assistant: Bradley Smith<br />

Bradley Smith will assist in training the team again this year. Coach Smith is one of the top men’s<br />

indoor volleyball players in the Carolinas. He recently received the 2004 All-Region award and his<br />

team finished first this past season in the USA Volleyball Men’s A National Championship<br />

tournament, held in Denver, CO. Smith will provide expertise in training middle and outside hitters,<br />

along with general attacking and blocking techniques.<br />

Student Assistant: Talayna Akrie<br />

After an outstanding season as a member of the Lady Saints volleyball<br />

team, Talayna Akrie is assisting Coach Tim Loesh this season while<br />

completing her degree in Psychology at <strong>Limestone</strong> College.<br />

As one of two seniors, and a captain on the 2004 <strong>Limestone</strong> squad,<br />

Talayna played in 113 out of 115 games for the Saints, and was one of<br />

only three players to play in all 31 matches. During her single season at<br />

<strong>Limestone</strong>, the starting setter ranked second on the team in both kill<br />

percentage at .224, and service aces with 34. She also led the team with<br />

890 assists, a career and single season record, while recording 18 solo<br />

blocks and 244 digs.<br />

At Colby Community College, where she earned her associate’s degree, Akrie averaged 10 assists and<br />

2 kills per game. In 2003, Akrie recorded 257 assists and 74 digs for Middle Tennessee State<br />

University.<br />

Originally from Aurora, CO, Akrie brings a wealth of playing experience and leadership to the 2005<br />

Lady Saints team. She will concentrate on setting, defense, and team fitness.<br />
