Clemson fires head volleyball coach

---

Clemson, S.C. — Clemson Head Volleyball Coach Hugh Hernesman will not return for the 2017 season, Director of Athletics Dan Radakovich announced today. A national search for his replacement will begin immediately, and an interim head coach will be named shortly as offseason training continues.

“The decision to make a change in the leadership of our volleyball program is not an easy one,” said Radakovich, “but in evaluating the entire program, it became evident that we needed a new direction to better position our student-athletes for future success. I want to thank Hugh for his service to Clemson and wish him the very best in his future endeavors. We are a world-class university competing in the premier collegiate athletic conference and I am confident we will find a head coach who will lead us to great success on and off the court.”
