16 Power: Coach Tracy Klosterman
Asst. Coach Mike Kwan

Tracy: I have played volleyball for 30 years and I LOVE it. I started in middle school, and ended up playing in college at Southern Oregon University. Unbelievably, I still hold several school records there! I transferred to UC Berkeley my senior year and learned how to play grass doubles volleyball. At Cal I also coached the JV mens team for one season and coached for the Golden Bear Volleyball Club for two seasons. I am Head Coach at Grant High School and have coached for five club seasons in Portland (Wilson VBC, MAC VBC, and Blues VBC). I play on a womens AA team.  I have had the privilege of experiencing a wide variety of coaches and some that are truly exceptional. I hope to bring the best of what I learned from them and all that I have learned from my experiences as a player to my team. My volleyball (and life) philosophy is simple: work hard and have a great attitude.

Mike: I learned how to play and coach volleyball while in graduate school at UC Santa Barbara.  I played several seasons in USVBA (now USAV) aAdult competition in Colorado Springs until accepting a coaching opportunity with the Dig2Win VBC, where I was head coach of the Boy’s 16U team.  After moving to the Northwest, I took time off from coaching to raise my family, until getting back into coaching as a Head Coach of the Nafanua 14U White team.  I have served as Assistant Coach for the St. Mary’s JV Volleyball team, and two years as 12U Blues coach.  Outside of volleyball I enjoy cycling, swimming and manage to take a surfing vacation back to UC Santa Barbara each year.

Martina:  I have been playing volleyball since the young age of 6; since then it has been my passion. I played club volleyball for West Metro, PVC and MAC. I was also a varsity setter and captain for St. Mary's. My senior year I was injured and had to stop playing but I found a new passion in coaching. This is my third year coaching for the Blues Volleyball club and this past high school season I was the assistant JV coach. I am looking forward to another great year with the Blues!
