Nicelle Daum named new volleyball coach at Wayne High

Posted

Wayne High School Athletic Director Dave Wragge has announced the hiring of Nichelle Daum as the next Wayne Blue Devils Head Volleyball coach. 

Daum, who has been an assistant coach for the Blue Devils the past two seasons, will replace Traci Krusemark. Krusemark has led the program the last 10 seasons and is  stepping down from the position.

During that time she has compiled an overall record of 215-109. Under Coach Krusemark’s leadership the Blue Devil volleyball team has earned the school’s only Conference  tournament championship, two Midstates conference season championships, and three state tournament appearances. 

Athletic Director Wragge said, “Coach Krusemark was a great coach who produced consistent teams year in and year out. She did a great job of developing younger players and creating camps and opportunities for them to improve during the off season. The foundation built by Coach Krusemark will help future Blue Devil teams as well.” 

“We are looking forward to having Coach Daum leading the Lady Blue Devils. She has proven to be a knowledgeable volleyball coach who has a great passion for the game," Wragge added.
