Head Coach 

Caroline Walters

Caroline Walters begins her first season as Head Coach for 805 Elite. She is a member of the Cal Poly San Luis Obispo Women's Volleyball coaching staff. Walters’ primary on-court responsibilities with the Mustang program include working with Cal Poly’s serve receivers and down defenders while her off-court focus is geared toward the coordination of recruiting efforts and a role in both internal and external operations.

The West Coast Conference's all-time leader with 1,932 career digs and a three time All WCC Honorable Mention selection,  Walters is owner of four of the top five single season per-game dig marks in Santa Clara history. Walters enjoyed her top collegiate campaign as a sophomore in 2005 when as her conference-leading 516 digs – the third highest single-season total in Santa Clara history – helped propel the Broncos to a program-record 27 victories, a West Coast championship, a berth into the NCAA Tournament national semifinals and a final No. 4 ranking in the AVCA Coaches Top 25 Poll.

Statistically, Walters’ 4.93 digs-per-game mark recorded as a freshman in 2004 stands as the top single-season mark in Santa Clara history.

With Walters in the lineup, Santa Clara posted an 84-34 aggregate record, a 41-15 combined West Coast mark and failed to finish lower than third in the conference standings during any of her four seasons. Walters, a four-time program Defensive MVP selection and three-year captain, appeared in 421 of a possible 428 sets during her career. A native of Los Gatos, Calif., Walters earned a B.S. in accounting from Santa Clara last year.

Walters arrived on the central coast following a year stint as an assistant coach with the 18-Blue squad of the Los Gatos-based Vision Volleyball Club, where she helped with practice planning and on-court techniques and strategies.
