A coach who helped lead multiple to conference regular season titles is coming to Menlo.
Menlo announced Wednesday that it has hired Ali’i Keohohou to be its new men’s volleyball head coach.
This will be Keohohou’s second head coaching stint with a NCAA Division I-II men’s volleyball program.
Keohohou in five seasons at Mount Olive guided the Trojans to a ConfCarolinas regular season championship and back-to-back appearances in the conference tournament finals. In addition, Keohohou accumulated a 52-34 career record at Mount Olive and in 2021 earned the ConfCarolinas Coach of the Year.
Keohohou departed Mount Olive following the 2022 season to join the Loyola coaching staff under head coach John Hawks. The Ramblers in Keohohou’s two seasons won a share of the 2023 MIVA regular season championship and twice reached the conference tournament semifinals.
Along with his coaching experience, Keohohou as a libero helped CSUN reach the 2010 NCAA Tournament semifinals and set the single-season program record for digs.
Menlo in its first season after transitioning to NCAA Division I-II men’s volleyball finished in third place in the MPSF. The team also ended the season ranked No. 9 in the Division II National Coaches Poll.
