Former Wayland High School volleyball standout Krissy Dill is returning to her alma mater next fall as as its next varsity volleyball coach.

Dill was a Division 2 all-state player for the Wildcats, along with Alison Getty, paying on a team that advanced as far as the state semifinals in the fall of 2013. She then went on to have a record-setting career as an outside hitter for Davenport University, breaking the single-game record for kills in one game.

She has been coaching as a part of Far Out Volleyball Club the past four years.

Dill was instrumental in helping record Wayland’s best-ever season in the school’s history, losing only eventual champion Pontiac Notre Dame Prep. She also was a teammate for two years at Davenport with former Wildcat Molly Lameyer as part of a rich tradition of volleyball for the Wildcats.

Dill will succeed Mike Scott, who guided the Wayland volleyball squad to a district championship in his only season. He succeeded Nicki Cardosa, who resigned after the 2016 season.
