I am in my fifth year of coaching at Amarillo Xtreme Volleyball Club but my tenth year overall. I have coached ages 12-15 and have had experience coaching with some big names, April Bolen (Tascosa Varsity) and Jason Culpepper (Bushland Varsity). I played at Amarillo High for Coach Jan Barker and graduated in '13. I had plans to continue my volleyball career in college but an injury held me back so opted for coaching instead! |
Lynsey Gabert
I fell in love with volleyball when my small town gained the sport my freshman year of high school. I lived and breathed volleyball all four years and those are some of the best memories. I had great coaches that taught me so much about the sport, and helped me adapt my OH position to my vision (legally blind in left eye). After high school I attended and graduated from Texas A&M University. Started teaching and coaching volleyball straight out of college at Tascosa. I took a long break from volleyball to raise a family, but I still love the sport and am so thrilled to be a part of the Xtreme Team. |

Started playing volleyball when I was 11 and fell in love with the sport.

I started coaching club volleyball right out of High School in Lubbock, TX. I relocated to the Amarillo area where I attended and graduated from WTAMU. This will be my 6th year coaching club volleyball. |
