VOLLEYBALL COACH
Jordan Smart is a Division I setter transferring to the University of San Francisco after competing at James Madison University for the past two years. With over a decade of playing experience, she has excelled at every level, from high school to Division I. In high school, she earned two All-State selections, Player of the Year honors, and served as a three-year varsity captain. At the club level, she consistently competed in the Open Division, qualifying multiple times while facing the nation’s top talent.
At JMU, Jordan quickly became a key contributor, earning significant playing time and Sun Belt Conference Setter of the Week honors. As a shorter setter, she has developed exceptional decision-making and court awareness, demonstrating that elite play is built on intelligence, skill, and work ethic — not just size. She now brings that experience to coaching athletes of all levels, from beginners to those with collegiate aspirations. Her training focuses on fundamentals, game-like situations, and the technical skills needed to compete at the next level, all within a supportive and encouraging environment.
Volleyball runs in Jordan’s family. Her mother, Randi, played collegiately at Utah State and LSU and now coaches at Rutgers University. As a current Division I athlete, Jordan offers a unique perspective on what it takes to succeed at the next level. She is passionate about helping players develop their skills, elevate their game IQ, and build the confidence needed to stand out on the court.
