Fordham University Volleyball Head Coach Ian Choi announced Friday the hiring of Brooke Alverson as the Associate Head Coach for the Rams ahead of the fall 2025 campaign.

Alverson joins the volleyball program after serving as Director of Administration and Branding for the Fordham women's basketball team during the 2024–25 campaign. Before arriving at Rose Hill, she spent two seasons at West Texas A&M, where she was an assistant coach on the Lady Buffs' 2022 NCAA Division II National Championship team and also worked as a sports information director. 

Bringing a deep background in volleyball, Alverson previously served as an assistant coach at nationally ranked NJCAA program, Navarro College. Prior to that, she spent five years as the founder and director of Pineywoods Volleyball Club in Texas, starting in 2015. During that time, she also worked with the North Texas Region of USA Volleyball as an administrative assistant, collaborating with more than 200 club teams.

"I'm excited to have Brooke on our staff this season," said Coach Choi. "I have no doubt that her relationships in the recruiting world coupled with her coaching experience on a National Championship program will help to propel and maintain our competitive culture and success."

While with the women's basketball program at Fordham last season, Alverson helped elevate its social media presence, increasing followers across all platforms by 12%. She also supported the sports information department with recruiting coverage and coordinated on-campus visits for prospective student-athletes. Additionally, she launched fan and alumni engagement campaigns and partnered with local schools and community groups to bring guests to games at Rose Hill Gym.

Alverson is a two-time All-Southland Conference selection from her years playing at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi, and received her Bachelor of Arts in Radio and Television Broadcast, with a Minor in Communication. She spends her free time with her nephews, Beckham and Brigham, and her dog.
