on


STOCKTON, Calif. – Returning to Pacific for his second stint, Adam Foley was hired as Associate Head Coach for the women’s water polo program.
 
Foley previously served as Assistant Coach with Pacific men’s and women’s water polo in 2022-23. In that year, the men’s team won the Golden Coast Conference Tournament, won a game in the NCAA Tournament to reach the national semifinals and finished with a 22-7 record. The women ended 14-10 and won two games in the GCC Tournament.
 
“I’m excited to return to Pacific and be a part of Water Polo U. I am looking forward to contributing to an environment that continually strives for excellence in and out of the pool,” Foley said.
 
The past two seasons, Foley served as Head Coach of the Navy Aquatic Club. He managed a team of six coaches to serve six different age groups and grew the program from 60 to 100 athletes.
 
Foley has Division I head coaching experience as he was at the helm of the men’s and women’s water polo teams at George Washington. He started as an assistant coach in 2014 before being promoted to Interim Head Coach in Dec. 2014 and Head Coach in April 2015.
 
Foley also brings national team experience as he spent two years with Trinidad and Tobago in 2011-13, serving as its technical director of water polo development and head coach of the senior and junior national teams. During his tenure, the Trinidad and Tobago youth squad qualified for the World Junior Championships and the country established itself as the premier team in the region.
 
Foley was head coach of the MIT men’s varsity team and women’s collegiate club squad from 2007-11. During his four years in Cambridge, the Engineers’ men’s program won pair of CWPA Division III Eastern Championship titles in 2007 and 2010.
 
“Adam brings an exceptional breadth of experience, having found success at every level of the game – from leading the Trinidad and Tobago National Team, to impactful collegiate coaching stints at MIT and George Washington, to guiding his 18U girls’ team to a top-10 finish at the 2024 Junior Olympics. Adam is no stranger to Pacific, having coached here before, and he embodies everything we stand for at Water Polo U: excellence, innovation and relentless competitiveness. His passion and proven track record make him a perfect fit for our program,” said head coach James Graham.
 
Foley was a four-year letterwinner at the University of Redlands, ranking seventh in school history in goals (111), fifth in assists (103), third in steals (202) and fifth in ejections drawn (100) when he graduated. As a senior in 2003, Foley was named both Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Player of the Year and ACWPC Division III National Player of the Year after tallying 39 goals, 36 assists and 60 steals.
 
A three-time All-SCIAC selection and a member of three SCIAC championship teams, Foley led Redlands to an 80-40 (.667) overall record and a 33-1 (.971) mark in the SCIAC during his four-year playing career.
 
Upon graduation, Foley joined the Redlands coaching staff as a graduate assistant for the men’s and women’s water polo and swimming programs. During his one-year tenure with his alma mater, Coach Foley helped guide the Bulldogs’ men’s water polo team to a 24-11 record and the women’s squad to a 20-13 mark and a SCIAC title.
 
A native of Ashland, Oregon, Foley earned his bachelor’s degree in history from Redlands in 2004 and his master’s degree in teaching and curriculum development from Northeastern University in 2009.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – The fourth-seeded Indiana volleyball team (25-7, 14-6 B1G) will play in the Sweet 16 for just the second time in program history. The NCAA announced start times and dates for next week’s regional semifinals on Sunday (Dec. 7) afternoon. The Hoosiers will play top-seeded Texas at Gregory Gymnasium on Friday (Dec. 12) afternoon at Noon ET on ESPN.

 

Following the greatest regular season in program history, IU was awarded a top-16 national seed and the chance to host the opening two rounds of the NCAA Tournament. The Hoosiers made quick work of their first two matchups, sweeping Toledo and fifth-seeded Colorado in Bloomington to advance to the Sweet 16.

 

IU is one of five Big Ten programs remaining in the NCAA Tournament. Of the 16 schools left in the big dance, IU is one of two teams (Cal Poly) that didn’t make the big dance last year. The Hoosiers have already set a single-season program record for wins (25) and will attempt to advance to the regional final for the first time in program history.

 

The other matchup in the Austin Regional will pit second-seeded Stanford and third-seeded Wisconsin against each other. Their match will begin 30 minutes after the conclusion of IU’s. The winners of both regional semifinals will meet on Sunday (Dec. 14) afternoon for a spot in the national semifinals in Kansas City.
