MURFREESBORO -- The Chowan University athletic department has named Melanie Chaussee Head Coach of the Men's and Women's Cross Country teams. Chaussee embarks on her first season as Head Coach of both cross country teams after serving as the Assistant Volleyball Coach during the 2015 off-season.

She noted, "I am very excited for the opportunity to coach cross country. I look forward to working with a great group of student-athletes who will strive for their individual best, yet work for team cohesiveness as well."

Chaussee competed for the Chowan University volleyball team for two seasons. She was an integral part of the team's 2014 CIAA Northern Division title and CIAA Championship. Chaussee earned All-CIAA recognition, Atlantic Regional All-Tournament Team recognition and NCCSIA All-State honors her senior year while tallying 334 season kills and 61 blocks (eight solo, 53 assisted) for the Blue and White.

She graduated in December 2014 with a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies.

Prior to attending Chowan, Chaussee earned an Associate's degree from Johnson County Community College in Overland Park, Kansas. She served as a student athletic trainer during her two years there.
