Alumni Spotlight: Mackenzie Martin Begins New Chapter in Volleyball Career
CHARLESTON, S.C. – The Citadel’s former volleyball player, Mackenzie Martin ’24, shares her exciting new journey as an assistant coach while reflecting on her path into coaching through her past experiences.
For as long as Mackenzie can remember, volleyball has been at the heart of her life. From her playing career at Tulane to ending her time at The Citadel, coaching wasn’t always her goal, but life can be unpredictable.
When asked about her sudden decision to coach, Martin realized she hadn’t originally planned to become a coach..
“I never knew I wanted to coach, but I knew I wanted to be around volleyball anyway I could,” Martin said. “It is such a big part of me, and I was fortunate that I was able to say yes to an opportunity at Liberty this past January.”
