Jacey Smith joined the Golden Hurricane volleyball coaching staff as an assistant coach in January 2023.
Smith has helped coach Tulsa to 36 wins and one postseason appearance in her two seasons at TU. She also serves as the recruiting coordinator for the team and has coached one All-American and three First Team All-Conference standouts for the Golden Hurricane.
Smith joins Tulsa after a one-year stint as a volunteer assistant coach at Kansas State, where she helped the Wildcats finish the 2022 season atop the Big 12 in service aces (183). K-State also finished in the top half of the league in digs (1,571), digs per set (14.28), service aces per set (1.66), blocks (285), blocks per set (2.59), points (1,831) and points per set (16.65). She served alongside current TU Head Coach Lauren Ramatowski, who was an assistant coach at the time for the Wildcats.
Before coaching at K-State, Smith served as assistant coach at McMurry University for one year. There, she led recruiting efforts in signing four players during the spring in addition to leading and organizing practices, facilities and academics.
Previously, Smith spent three seasons at Mary Hardin-Baylor, first as a graduate assistant coach and later was promoted to a full-time assistant coaching position. She helped lead The Cru to a 64-12 (.842) overall record and 46-3 (.939) mark during conference play, as UMHB claimed three American Southwest Conference West Division titles.
With Smith’s help, Mary Hardin-Baylor earned the ASC West Coaching Staff of the Year Award in the spring of 2021. Smith handled the workload of a full-time assistant, including building scouting reports, leading team meetings, team defense and serve receive duties in addition to travel preparations.
Smith was a four-year letterwinner at Abilene Christian (2015-18), where she left as the program’s Division I-era leader in kills (1,185), aces (95) and points (1,390.5). A two-time All-Southland Conference second team honoree, Smith led the Wildcats to a runner-up finish in the Southland Conference in 2017.
A native of Wimberley, Texas, Smith earned her bachelor’s degree in sport and recreation management from ACU in 2019. She received her master’s in sport administration from Mary Hardin-Baylor in 2021.
