PRINCESS ANNE, Maryland -- More than a decade ago, a still green coach took the reigns of the volleyball program at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore.Toby Rens had just two years of head coaching experience when he arrived, and won just three games in his first season as the coach in 2001. Doesn't sound too impressive until you realize the squad had not won even a single game in more than two years.
"When it was all said and done, we broke a 72-match losing streak," Rens said.
By 2002, the team finished 20-15, and one season later, in 2003, set a school-record 26-12 mark that would stand until it was broken in 2012.
