   Before arriving at Michigan State, Cathy George had already established herself as one of the more well-respected coaches in the sport. Her 16 years on the MSU sideline has seen the Spartans ascend to one of the elite programs in the country. With NCAA appearances in seven of the last 10 years (including three trips to the Sweet 16 and an NCAA Elite Eight appearance in 2017), she has guided the Spartans to the most wins of any Michigan State head coach in program history.Â
   More than just wins and losses, George has insisted on a level of accomplishments not only on the court, but in the classroom and community.  George, her staff, and her players are mainstays in community outreach events, and can boast some of the most impressive academic accomplishments of any team at Michigan State. George’s players include 99 Academic All-B1G selections, seven Academic All-Americans, and 37 B1G Distinguished Scholars over 16 seasons.
   Every year, George’s teams have attracted rapidly growing crowds to Jenison Field House, ranking in the top-25 in Division I attendance in each of the last 23 years. The Spartans ranked seventh nationally in average attendance, (3,101), as 46,510 fans took in a volleyball match at Jenison Field House in 2019, the ninth highest total among Division I programs. The Spartans have ranked among the top 12 in total attendance in each of the last 10 years, and have spent the last five seasons among the top 10 in the nation in average attendance.Â
   George currently boasts a career record of 667-457, and is 302-233 while at MSU. She ranks 15th among active coaches for total wins in NCAA Division I volleyball. On November 11, 2017, she became the winningest head coach in program history (251 wins), surpassing Annelies Knoppers (250-197-18, 1974-84).
   The head coach, has helped MSU to its longest stretch of sustained success. MSU’s streak of seven consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances from 2011-17 is the second-longest in school history. In addition, MSU, Nebraska, and Penn State were the only teams to finish also .500 or better in B1G play each year in that stretch.Â
   MSU’s 15-15 record in 2019 and 17-16 mark the year prior marked a reloading period for the Spartans after the departure of seven seniors - all starters - from the 2017 Elite Eight campaign.  The 2018 squad was the youngest roster in the B1G - MSU had just 40 combined games of B1G experience entering the season. Â
   The accolades for MSU’s 2017 Elite Eight squad made the group one of the most decorated in program history, second to the 1995 Final Four squad. Going 24-9 overall and 14-6 in the B1G, MSU finished fourth in Conference play, and earned the fourth-most B1G wins in program history and the most since 1998. The trip to the NCAA Regional Final was MSU’s first since 1996, and its final ranking of No. 8 in the final AVCA national poll was also the highest for the program since the 1996 season.Â
   MSU had four players earn All-America honors, which included Second Team kudos for Alyssa Garvelink, becoming the fourth player in program history to make the first, second, or third team in multiple seasons in MSU history. Autumn Bailey also earned Second Team honors, Rachel Minarick bookmarked her career with a second Honorable Mention Selection, and Holly Toliver was an Honorable Mention pick for the first time. Minarick also earned First Team CoSIDA Academic All-America honors - just the second player in program history to earn a place on the ultra-competitive First Team.  Garvelink and Bailey (First Team), were joined by Minarick and Toliver (Honorable Mention) on the All-B1G team, MSU’s most picks in a single season since 2000.Â
   In 2016, MSU finished the season with a 25-9 record, recording the most regular-season victories (24) for a Spartan team since 1996. The 25 victories also tied the most under George at the helm. MSU was the overall No. 9 seed in the NCAA Tournament and hosted for the just the fifth time in school history and the first time since 2003. Garvelink was named a First Team All-B1G selection and also a Second Team AVCA All-American, while Bailey was an Honorable Mention. Allyssah Fitterer earned her fourth consecutive All-Region honor, capturing the B1G Sportsmanship Award as well. Â
   In 2015, the Spartans overcame a host of frustrating injuries to maintain their fifth consecutive season of .500 or better in the B1G, going 19-14 and 10-10 in Conference play. The Spartans faced a showdown with the nation’s No. 1 team in the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the second straight season, and fell to Washington in Seattle, 3-1. George won her 200th match at Michigan State on Oct. 14, 2015, when the Spartans downed visiting Maryland.
   The Spartans boasted three Honorable Mention All-America selections in 2014 and pushed top overall seed Stanford before falling in four sets to the Cardinal in the NCAA Tournament. During the season, senior Moster cemented her spot in B1G volleyball lore, finishing third all-time in Conference history in career digs.Â
   The 2013 season was a banner year for the Spartans, who advanced to the Sweet 16 for the second consecutive season and boasted three All-America selections. MSU went 11-1 in the pre-B1G portion of its schedule, then started the B1G season 6-0 and was ranked as high as fifth in the country; the Spartans opened the conference slate with an upset of No. 1 Penn State (3-1) on its home court, and capped its 6-0 start with a 3-1 home win over then-No. 9 Nebraska. In the NCAA Tournament, MSU downed Ohio and host No. 17 Kentucky in the first weekend, but fell to No. 2 Penn State in the round of 16.
   The individual accolades poured in for MSU over the course of the season. Junior libero Kori Moster earned her second straight B1G Defensive Player of the Year honor, was an All-America selection, and was one of 12 players selected by USA Volleyball for the U.S. Collegiate National Team to tour China in June 2014. Lauren Wicinski completed her career with All-America honors for the fourth season in her career, and was a unanimous First Team All-B1G selection. Classmate Alexis Mathews earned her first-ever All-B1G accolades and was an honorable mention All-America pick, while earning a spot in the USA Volleyball training block in the spring of 2014. Meanwhile, co-captain Kristen Kelsay was an Academic All-America selection, captured the Gwendolyn Norrell Community Service & Leadership Award at the Student-Athlete Support Services Academic Gala for excelling in the field of community service and outreach, then won both the Chester Brewer Leadership Award as well as the Dr. James Feurig Achievement Award (honoring dedication, honesty, academic achievement, and perseverance), two of MSU’s major athletic awards, at the end of the 2013-14 academic year. In addition, she was named the Detroit Athletic Club Female College Athlete of the Year as well as the recipient of a B1G Postgraduate Scholarship.Â
    The 2012 edition of the Spartans opened the NCAA Tournament with a 3-2 win over No. 18 San Diego and then upset defending national champion UCLA on its home floor, 3-1, in-route to the Sweet 16. The Spartans opened the season on a 12-match win streak that included four in-season tournament titles. Moster earned B1G Defensive Player of the Year, and was Honorable Mention both in the B1G and on the AVCA All-America team. Junior outside hitter Lauren Wicinski earned First Team All-B1G and Second Team AVCA honors, the first time since 1995 that two Spartans were named AVCA All-Americans in the same season.Â
   The Spartans were in the NCAA Tournament in 2011, the ninth trip for George and her fourth at the helm of MSU.  Jenilee Rathje, one of the most decorated players in program history, was recognized as a third-team AVCA All-American and was a unanimous selection to the All-B1G First Team for the second straight season. Fellow senior Kyndra Abron was also named to the All-B1G team as an honorable mention and was named to the COBRA Magazine Midwest All-Region Team for along with Alexis Mathews.
   The Spartans closed out the 2010 campaign by winning four of their final six matches, highlighted by an impressive 3-0 win over then-No. 19 Michigan on Senior Night at the Breslin Center before a record-setting crowd of 6,824. As a result of the 3-0 win, MSU regained the “State Pride Flag” for the first time since 2006. Rathje became the 17th player in program history to amass 1,000-career kills as she earned unanimous first team All-B1G honors as well as being named an AVCA All-Mideast Region honorable mention selection. Abron was named to the COBRA Magazine Midwest All-Region Team while freshman Mathews was an honorable mention selection.
   In 2009, the Spartans won their first 12 matches of the season and made their third NCAA Tournament appearance over four seasons MSU posted upset wins over No. 12 Southern California and No. 12 Illinois in the B1G home opener. Abron was an Honorable mention AVCA All-America.
   In 2008, George brought the No. 7-ranked recruiting class onto campus, helping MSU compile a 15-16 overall record, playing five freshmen for most of the season. George spent the spring of 2008 coaching the USA A2 Red team to the USA Adult Open Championship. The USA A2 Red Team topped the University of Washington’s Huskies VBC team, 3-1, in Atlanta. George’s A2 Red Team took home the gold, while the Blue team finished with the bronze. This was George’s second stint with USA Volleyball, after serving as an assistant coach for the US team at the 1999 World University Games.
   George guided the Spartans to the NCAA Regional Semifinals and a fifth-place finish in the B1G in 2007, going 21-14 overall. MSU entered postseason play in consecutive seasons for the first time since 2002-03. Under George’s guidance, senior Ashley Schatzle became the Spartans’ seventh AVCA All-American.
   In George’s first year as head coach in 2005, MSU finished the season with a 12-18 record, with Katie Johnson earning All-B1G Honorable Mention honors. A year later, George guided MSU to the 2006 NCAA Tournament, leading the Spartan squad to a 19-12 overall record, including a 10-10 mark in B1G play.
