Head Coach Cindy Meyer began her collegiate coaching career at Doane College in 1987 with a victory over College of St. Mary. Since that time, Meyer’s teams have gone to eight national tournaments while her program emphasizes outstanding fundamentals and team cohesiveness. Meyer is the winningest coach in Tiger volleyball history and she has coached seven conference players-of-the-year, 17 All-Americans, and 37 NAIA Scholar-Athletes.

Meyer’s early coaching days at Doane featured eight winning seasons and two national tournament berths in 1990 and 1994. In 1988, the Tigers won 37 matches, most in the Coach Meyer era and second-most in school history. The 1990 season saw Coach Meyer reached 100 career victories with a win over Washburn. In 1993, a victory over Midland Lutheran College gave Meyer win 200.

The Tigers had a down season in 1995, fi nishing 15-19. They came back the next season with a 26-win season and in 1997 they qualifi ed for the NAIA Tournament with a 32-win campaign. Meyer picked up win No. 300 against Hastings in 1997.

With the formation of the Great Plains Athletic Conference in 2000, the Tigers posted a fourth place fi nish. Two years later, Doane claimed their fi rst GPAC crown. They advanced to win the GPAC tournament crown, the NAIA Region IV title and qualifi ed for nationals. In addition to all that happened in 2002, Coach Meyer picked up win No. 400 in a victory over Hastings.

The Tigers missed the national tournament in 2003 and 2004 as they fi nished one spot away from an at-large berth. Meyer’s teams posted 25+ wins in each of those seasons with runner-up fi nishes in the GPAC. The Tigers returned to nationals in 2005 with an upset win over Hastings in the regional tournament. They took third place in the tournament as the region earned three bids to nationals. In 2006, Meyer picked up her 500th victory as a collegiate coach with a 3-0 victory over Dakota Wesleyan.

Doane returned to the national scene with an appearance at the NAIA Tournament in 2008. Doane placed fourth in the GPAC but used and come-from-behind victory over Hastings to cement their place in the tournament. Doane defeated Bethel (KS) in the NAIA Opening Round as the Tigers hosted their fi rst-ever national tournament game.

For the fi rst time in school history, Meyer and the Tigers returned to the NAIA Tournament. This marked the fi rst back-to-back appearance at nationals. The season opened with an upset of Biola University, a Final Four qualifi er in 2008. Doane tied for second in the GPAC and upset Morningside in Sioux City to advance to the GPAC Tournament fi nals and earned an automatic berth to nationals.

In 2010, the Tigers had several memorable moments. Midway through the year, Coach Meyer joined an exclusive club when her squad defeated Morningside for the 600th collegiate victory. Meyer is one of three coaches to accomplish the feat in the state of Nebraska, joining Terry Pettit (Nebraska) and Rosella Meier (Nebr-Kearney). The Tigers capped the season with a runner-up fi nish in the GPAC regular season & post-season and a trip to the national tournament.

Despite having one of the top overall records in the nation at 29-6, Doane was not able to advance to the NAIA National Tournament. The Tigers fi nished second in the conference with a 12-4 record and were 15-1 in games played on a neutral court.

Meyer, associate professor of physical education, earned a bachelor’s degree from Wayne State College and a master’s degree from Kearney State College (UNK). She began her coaching career at Ainsworth High School, where she led her teams to an 83-30 overall record and four state tournament appearances. Meyer has also established one of the premier summer volleyball camps, drawing hundreds of young student-athletes each year.
