Camp Highlights

Todd Kress, Camp Director
“My Staff and I personally invite you to
join us this summer for a lot of fun and
hard work. You will receive hands-on
training from my staff and our incredibly
talented players. Our goal is to make you
a better player while sharing the love and
passion we have for the sport of volleyball.
Join us on the FSU campus this summer
and come prepared to learn.”
Todd Kress is entering his 6th year as the head volleyball coach
at Florida State University. Within the first two years of his
arrival he has led the Seminoles to a second place finish in the
ACC and an appearance in the NCAA tournament. While at
FSU, Kress became the second youngest active head coach to
reach 200 career victories. In the 2003 season Todd brought
in a handful of newcomers who were very eager to work hard
and be part of the Seminole Tradition. As he continued to push
the girls to a new level the hard work paid off. In 2004, Senior
Captain, Amanda Santos, earned herself AVCA All-American
Honors, a first for Seminole Volleyball. She was also drafted by
a Holland professional volleyball team in 2005. In 2005, Senior
Andreza Santos earned AVCA All-American Honors in addition to being named to the AVCA All-East Region First Team
and All-ACC First Team. The accolades continued in 2006, as
Makini Thompson joined the Santos sisters by earning AVCA
All-American Honors, AVCA All-East Region First Team and
the All-ACC First Team for her role in the Seminoles 3rd place
finish in the ACC.
Kress began his collegiate head coaching career at Fairfield
University in 1995 where he became the Stags’ all-time
winningest coach in just four years. In 1999, Kress took over
the program at Northern Illinois University compiling a .659
winning percentage in the past three years and culminating with
a Mid-American Championship and NCAA appearance. Kress
has led four teams to the NCAA tournament in the past eight
years. His career coaching record now stands at 239-145.
Dani Kress, Camp Coordinator
Dani Kress served as an assistant coach to Kress at both
Northern Illinios and Fairfield University for four seasons.
She played all four years of her college volleyball career as an
outside hitter at the University of Cincinnati. Kress is currently
the volunteer assistant coach for the Seminoles.
