Aggie Head Volleyball coach leads the Girls U19 team to a gold medal

Texas A&M Head Volleyball coach Jamie Morrison will bring home some gold after leading the Girls U19 team to victory in Croatia

I’m starting to sense a theme here in Aggieland among new coaches. All they do is win on the world stage. Like his counterpart Joni Taylor, Head Texas A&M volleyball coach Jamie Morrison has led a U19 team to a world title.

While it was not an easy task for Team USA as they fought for a hard ten days to make it to the finals against Türkiye, after dropping the first two sets 20-25 and 23-25, they went on a rally to win the next three sets 25-22,25-16 and 15-10 to close out the game-winning 3-2 to take home the gold medal.

Here is what coach Morrison had to say after the big win.

“We thought about the fact that we had nothing to lose,” Morrison said. “We knew that Türkiye have a very nice group, and, on the other hand, we are a very young team. This entire tournament we have been getting better, overcoming difficulties. And if we hadn’t done it, we wouldn’t have made it to the final. These girls are one of a kind. It’s an amazing group of individuals that make a great team. We had six days to train and prepare for the tournament, so we were getting better here on the go, day by day, match by match.”

Congratulations to Jamie Morrison and the Girls U19 team on their championship run, and we hope coach Morrison can bring some of that magic back to College Station.
