With the sport rapidly growing in New York City and across the country, Coach Kriebel is excited to get Poly’s Boys’ team on top. As a former Division 1 volleyball player, she uses her high-level knowledge and skills to train her student-athletes. She brings her experience coaching with Brooklyn Elite Volleyball where she has medaled as a coach and with East Coast Beach Volleyball Academy. Through her work with Brooklyn Elite, she has medaled as a coach at several events including bronze medal in 18 Open at USAV Junior Olympics, Silver. Her coaching style is made up of three primary components: discipline, resiliency, and hard work.
