BOWIE, Maryland  --  Bowie State Athletic Director Anton Goff announces the appointment of Eriel Jeffery as head volleyball coach of the Lady Bulldogs volleyball team. Jeffrey's previously served four seasons as an assistant coach for the Lady Bulldogs.

Before coaching at Bowie State, the Southern California native coached the high school varsity volleyball team at Archbishop Carroll, a Catholic college preparatory program located in Washington, D.C., and assisted various high school programs and camps around the area.

Prior to her coaching career, Coach Jeffery played collegiate volleyball at The University of Maryland Eastern Shore, located in Princess Anne, MD, where she earned many accolades and awards. Coach Jeffery was a dominant force on the volleyball team while attending UMES and was no stranger to being a scholar athlete, as she was also in the honors program and an active member of Sigma Tau Delta (an English honor society).

Coach Jeffery earned her bachelor's degree in English from UMES and is currently completing a master's degree (in the same field) from Bowie State University. Additionally, she is a full-time employee of Prince George's County, who works as a high school English teacher.
