Southern Illinois Volleyball finalized its 2025 coaching staff with the addition of Riley Rabedeaux as a graduate assistant, the program announced Tuesday.

Rabedeaux joins the Salukis after a stint at Midwestern State University in Wichita Falls, Texas, where she played her junior and senior seasons as an outside hitter. She led the Mustangs in points and kills both seasons, earning herself an All-Lone Star Conference honorable mention in 2024.

Her freshman and sophomore seasons were spent at Adams State University in Alamosa, Colo. She compiled 372 kills during her time and earned All-Academic team honors in both seasons.

A native of Poulsbo, Wash., Rabedeaux attended North Kitsap High School, where she was a three-time letter winner. She starred, earning a first-team All-Conference nod in each season including an All-State honorable mention in 2021. She played with Dakine Volleyball Club in Tacoma and also played tennis and basketball.

Her brothers Beau and Cole Rabedeaux also competed in collegiate athletics. Her brother Beau made 64 appearances (third-most in program history) as a pitcher for the University of Jamestown Jimmies baseball team (NAIA) from 2014-18. Cole played basketball for the University of Wisconsin Eau Claire Blugolds basketball team from 2017-20, setting school records for three-point shots made and attempted during a single season.
