Mary Wise Volleyball Endowment Fund

Mary Wise

This fund was established in 2008 by Jack Katz in honor of University of Florida Volleyball Head Coach Mary Wise. A graduate of Purdue University, Wise was the youngest coach in the history of the NCAA when she began her volleyball coaching career at Iowa State University. She continued her career as an assistant coach at the University of Kentucky and began her head coaching position at UF in 1991. At UF, Wise has won 18 consecutive SEC Championships, the only coach in SEC history in any sport to achieve such a feat.
