RALEIGH, N.C. - The Wolfpack is excited to celebrate the 50th anniversary of volleyball at NC State throughout the 2025 campaign.Â
The 1975 season marked the first year NC State volleyball was a varsity sport. Since then, the program has eclipsed 800 wins, 47 All-ACC selections, 26 winnings seasons, four All-Americans, four NCAA Tournament appearances, and one ACCÂ championship.Â
NC State's annual Alumni Weekend is set for October 3 through 5 and will serve as a reunion for players and staff members throughout the last 50 years.Â
A logo has been created to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the program and pays tribute to Reynolds Coliseum, which has served as the Pack's home arena since the 1990s.
Throughout the 2025 campaign, "Then and Now of Pack Volleyball" will be released on the team's media accounts. The video series will feature head coach, Megan Wargo-Kearney, as she chats with the winningest head coach in program history, Pat Hieschler, the 1987 ACC Player of the Year, Volire Tisdale, and four-time All-ACC honoree, Melissa Evans. The group discusses the changes in the game and all things involved from the early years of the program to present day.Â
The program will also be highlighting alumni throughout the season on the team's media platforms to highlight the numerous accomplishments, stories, and memories throughout the last half a century.
