CHAMPIONSHIP COACHES HIGHLIGHT 2025 SO. CALIFORNIA INDOOR VOLLEYBALL HALL OF FAME INDUCTION CLASS; WILL BE HONORED WITH 2026 CLASS ON MAY 3, 2026 IN ANAHEIM
National championship college coaches Jerritt Elliott from Texas and Chuck Erbe, formally from USC, along with Los Angeles City 10-time champion Howard Enstedt, headline the 2025-9th induction class for the Southern California Indoor Volleyball Hall of Fame (SCIVBHOF). Also being inducted are standout indoor players Bob Samuelson from CSUN, Alix Klineman from Stanford, Krista Vansant Hendrickson from Washington and all-timer John Brame from USC.

Selected for their lifetime volleyball service are standout player and CIF championship coach Rocky Ciarelli of Huntington Beach HS fame, and former UCSB NCAA finalist Marc ‘Cubby’ Jacobs, who made a local career from public address announcing for both the Gauchos and UCLA Bruins. Both are deceased, but have left lasting volleyball memories.

Elliott has won NCAA women’s titles at the University of Texas in 2012, 2022, and 2023. Erbe won AIAW titles in 1976, ’77 and 1980, plus the first NCAA women’s championship in 1981. Enstedt coached some of the greatest players of all-time, including SCIVBHOF members Chris Marlowe, Don Shaw, Dave Saunders, Fred Sturm, Steve Salmons, and Ricci Luyties.

Samuelson helped lead the 1992 Barcelona USA Olympic Team to the bronze medal. Klineman played indoors for the USA team, but is known for winning the 2020 Olympic beach gold medal with SCIVBHOFer April Ross in Tokyo in 2021 Vansant Hendrickson, who is currently the University of Illinois Assistant Coach, was the AVCA Player of the Year and Honda Award winner at the University of Washington between 2013-15. Brame was a brilliant player in the 1950s as a standout for the Hollywood YMCA, a Pan-American Games player, and a person who introduced volleyball throughout the world through his Navy work.

Ciarelli, who coached over 30 years in Orange County and won three CIF championships, played and assisted at Long Beach State. Jacobs played for UC Santa Barbara in the 1974 NCAA title match, and was known as the first great indoor volleyball announcer for both UCSB and UCLA, coining many terms that are still used today.

“We are excited about our 2025 induction class, which will be honored when we name our 2026 selections at our awards banquet on May 3, 2026 after the completion of the 2026 NCAA Beach Volleyball Championships,” said Mike Gallups, SCIVBHOF President. “There continues to be so much volleyball talent to recognize from Southern California and the 2025 class has tremendous balance from playing to coaching to special service to the sport.”

89-YEAR OLD ALICE CHAMBERS SANCHEZ SELECTED FOR SCIVBHOF LIFETIME HONOR

Alice Chambers Sanchez, who will turn 90-years old next March, has been selected as the 2022 winner of the Southern California Indoor Volleyball Hall of Fame (SCIVBHOF) Lifetime Service Award. Attending Narbonne High School in Lomita, she did not begin playing volleyball until the age of 25 in a house wives league after she was married with four children. She started organizing and running Southern California area tournaments back in 1960, and ran events for 59 years until stopping in 2019 at the age of 86. Her work and expertise included all of the scheduling for as many as 90 teams and officials over one event.

Alice played in her first USVBA championships in San Antonio in 1963 and played for 52 years until retiring in 2015. Playing for the Mavericks, she won titles in the 30s, 35s, 40s, 45s, 50s, 55s, 60s and 65s. She helped start the 30s division in 1977 in Hilo, Hawaii and was part of the winning team. She also won numerous senior national titles starting in 1983. She accomplished everything without ever being an All-American, “but with my competitive drive, I could match any of the All-Americans,” said Chambers Sanchez.

Nominated by SCIVBHOF members Kathy Gregory and Charlie Brande, they said of Alice, “There is not a better person to honor in Southern California with this honor for all of the players and coaches she has touched over her long volleyball career.”
