Ron Larsen, the 2004 Mountain Pacifi c Sports Federation Coach of the Year, begins his sixth season as head coach of the UC San Diego men’s volleyball team. He came to UCSD in 2000, UCSD’s fi nal year of NCAA Division III affi liation, and led the Tritons to one of the most memorable seasons in the program’s history. UCSD won the NCAA Division III Invitational National Championship and recorded the most wins (nine) for a Triton team in 10 seasons. He also led the team to its fi rst MPSF victory that year in three seasons. Competing as the only Division II team and the only non-scholarship program in the nation’s toughest men’s volleyball conference, the Tritons have continued to make strides in meeting the formidable challenge. The 2004 season saw UCSD go 8-21 overall and 4-18 in the MPSF. The season included wins against No. 11 Penn State, No.
9 UC Irvine and No. 7 UC Santa Barbara. The win over the Gauchos marked two program fi rsts, defeating UCSB and giving the Tritons four victories in the MPSF, the most in school history. Larsen came to UCSD from the University of Rutgers-Newark. A veteran of seven seasons at the New Jersey university, Larsen has coaching roots in the University of California system. His coaching career began at the University of California-Berkeley, where he led the Bears’ men’s volleyball team to a record of 102-29 at the club level. He coached at Cal from 1980 to 1984, and again from 1987 to 1989. He also served as assistant coach of the women’s volleyball team at St. Mary’s College from 1987 to 1988, before moving on to the University of California, Davis in 1989. At Davis, he served as assistant coach of the women’s team for four seasons, and head coach of the men’s team from 1991-93, leading the Aggies to a 65-31 record and a fi fth-place fi nish at the 1993 national club volleyball tournament.
Larsen served as head men’s and women’s coach at Rutgers-Newark from 1993 to 1999, compiling a record of 97-80 in men’s volleyball and 111-79 with the women’s team. The men’s team was consistently ranked in the nation’s top 15, and Larsen was named New Jersey Athletic Conference Coach of the Year in 1996 and 1998, and Eastern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association Coach of the Year in 1998.
Larsen’s coaching experience also includes the 1995 USA Olympic Festival, where he served as head coach of the North Men’s Team, leading his squad to a silver medal. He also coached the 1996 USA Boys’ Youth National Team, featuring the nation’s top 18 high school players.
Brett Bush begins his sixth season as assistant coach for the men’s volleyball team. A 1987 graduate of Cal Tech, Bush played collegiate baseball and basketball before joining the University of California’s club volleyball team while pursuing a Ph.D. in Physics. He led the team to a pair of Club National Championships in 1989 and 1990, earning MVP honors in the 1990 season. He then served as assistant coach at Cal in 1991-92, while also spending 1991 as a player on the U.S. Men’s National Team. Bush also served as assistant coach at Boston University from 1992-94, and with the San Diego Spikers women’s professional team in 1994-95.
Kevin Ring has been associated with UC San Diego men’s vol-leyball as a player, manager and coach for the past 15 years. He begins his ninth season as assistant coach in 2005.
A former high school player from Eugene, Oregon, Ring served as team manager from ‘89-91 before playing on the team for three seasons. Prior to earning a bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry from UCSD in 1996, Ring spent two years in a full-time position as manager of the USA Men’s National Team. He accompanied the National Team to both the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona and the 1996 Games in Atlanta.
