Greeny leaves Pullman after spending four seasons as a player (1995-1998), five more as an assistant coach (2000-2004) and the past 13 as the head coach. Under her leadership, WSU’s volleyball program had been transformed into one of the best in the nation. Eight-straight NCAA tournament appearances, two Sweet 16 appearances and the Cougs have finished in the top five in the Pac-12 standings each of the past six seasons. She was honored as the Pac-12 Coach of the Year twice in 2016 and 2021.
In 2023, Greeny led the Cougs to a 26-8 record — 14-6 in conference — and a top-four seed in the NCAA Tournament, hosting the first two rounds at Bohler Gym. The Cougars were bounced in the Sweet 16 by Pitt.
