Mark Pryor has been named the UND’s head volleyball coach, UND Athletics Director Brian Faison announced Monday.

Pryor, who has 15 years of collegiate coaching experience, will come to Grand Forks from his four-year stint at Baylor University as the associate head coach and recruiting coordinator.

“We are extremely excited about becoming members of the Grand Forks community and UND,” Pryor said. “When we were on campus and out in Grand Forks, both (my wife) Amanda and I were very impressed with the generosity, hospitality and the friendliness of everyone we encountered and their passion for the university itself — especially the athletic department.”
