Nike Volleyball Camp at Regis College (formerly Cambridge School of Weston)

Josh Anderson enters his fourth year as head men's and women's volleyball coach at Regis College in 2024-25.

During the 2023 women's volleyball season, he earned his 100th career coaching victory against Salve Regina Sept. 16, and then he led the Pride to a school-record 26 victories, including a 14-1 record within the GNAC. The team advanced to the championship match of the 2023 GNAC Tournament and was led by GNAC Setter of the Year Ahnasia Mckinney as well as four other players earning All-GNAC recognition. The men's volleyball team completed the 2024 season with Second Team All-GNAC honorees Joseph Perez and Orlando Plagata as it advanced to the GNAC Tournament for the third straight year.

During the 2022-23 academic year, Anderson led both the men's and women's volleyball teams to their respective GNAC Tournaments. The women posted their second straight 20-win season, the first time that has happened at Regis since 2014 and 2015. Led by AVCA All-Region honoree Marcello Cappuccio and fellow First Team All-GNAC selection Joseph Perez, the men won 12 matches for the second consecutive year.

Anderson led the Regis women's volleyball team to the second-highest win total in program history with 23 victories in 2021, advancing to the semifinals of the GNAC Tournament. He then paced the Pride men's volleyball squad to 12 victories during the 2022 season, including a 7-9 league mark to qualify for the GNAC Tournament.

Anderson had been the head coach of the volleyball program at Colby-Sawyer College from 2017 to 2021. After leading the women's volleyball squad to the championship match of the North Atlantic Conference (NAC) Tournament in 2017, he helped the team transition into the Great Northeast Athletic Conference in 2018, posting a 10-2 league record as part of a 21-11 overall mark and advancing to the semifinals of the GNAC Tournament.

Anderson was also tapped to lead the new men's volleyball program at Colby-Sawyer, as the Chargers won five of their first six matches on the way to a 10-win campaign in its inaugural season of 2019. Before the 2020 season was cut short, Colby-Sawyer posted an 11-6 record and featured Orlando Plagata, the NCAA Division III statistical champion in digs per set (3.66), as well as AJ Gnieski, the GNAC leader and second in Division III in service aces per set (0.84).

Anderson joined Colby-Sawyer from San Gabriel High School in San Gabriel, Calif., where he was the varsity volleyball coach for the boys and girls programs. He also was the San Gabriel Elite head coach for the boys 18s team and assistant for the girls 13 elite team.

From 2014 to 2016, Anderson was an assistant coach under former Olympian Trevor Schirman at Briar Cliff University in Sioux City, Iowa. He helped guide the women's team to two consecutive NAIA national championship appearances, while the men's squad began receiving top-10 votes in his second year with the team.

As a four-year starter for the Endicott College men's volleyball team, Anderson helped the Gulls win the New England Collegiate Conference (NECC) in both 2013 and 2014. Endicott earned its first-ever NCAA Tournament win with a sweep over MIT in 2014. In 2013, Anderson led the Gulls with 249 kills and 2.57 kills per set, plus he was second on the squad with 84 total blocks.

Anderson received a Bachelor of Science degree in sports management from Endicott in 2014 and a Master of Arts degree in human resource management from Briar Cliff in 2016. Originally from Pasadena, Calif., he is a member of the Athletics Hall of Fame at La Salle College Prep.

Coach Grandpre has played and coached Division 1 Volleyball. He has succeeded at every level as a player and coach including:

• 43-15 all time conference record @ Simmons University including 2019 GNAC Coach of the Year
• 4 year starter, 2 year captain, and all-time record holder for digs and aces @ Division I Sacred Heart University
• MVP of the New England Region as a Juniors player

In just five seasons since joining Simmons for the 2015 season, Head Coach Scott Grandpre has taken the program to heights never experienced before.

The Sharks mentor guided the squad to a 21-10 season record in 2017, including 11-1 in conference play, to establish school records for both regular season and conference wins. Grandpre saw Simmons vie for the conference championship for the first time in school history that year, following a program-best 12-match win streak, bolstered by the Great Northeast Athletic Conference Player of the Year. Grandpre was named the GNAC Coach of the Year in 2019 after repeating his conference success from 2017, directing the Sharks to an 11-1 league mark again to capture the number two seed in the conference championship tournament. The team finished the season with a 19-9 mark to record the highest winning percentage in school history at .679, which was backed by a school-record five all-conference honorees, including a first teamer and the conference Rookie of the Year.

The Rhode Island native has coached the Sharks to great success in conference play with five straight winning records against league foes, while compiling a 43-15 (.741) mark to go with an appearance in the conference title match and a pair of semifinal nods. During Grandpre's five-year tenure at the Fenway school, he has turned the Sharks into one of the best serving teams in the nation, consistently ranking among the nation's leaders, placing ninth among Division III schools in 2017, 11th following the 2015 campaign, 15th last year and 28th in 2019. He has already coached 14 All-Conference performers and as a tribute to his recruiting prowess, he counts among his players -- a conference Player of the Year, Rookie of the Year and three First Team All-Conference selections.

Grandpre came to Boston following five years of experience as a coach at the NCAA Division I level. He spent the past four seasons on the sideline of the Sacred Heart University women's program. While with the Pioneers, he directed drills and administered on-court instruction. He was an integral part to the team's scouting effort and also used analytics to help prepare the squad for upcoming opponents as well as making adjustments and improving the Pioneers' play as a team and individuals. The Sacred Heart graduate also managed game-day events and fundraising efforts.

Prior to his three-year stint with the women's program, Grandpre enjoyed a four-year playing career with the Pioneers. He was a two-year Captain for the men's squad and graduated in 2010 as the program's single-season record-holder for service aces and digs. Following his playing career, he wasted no time getting into the coaching ranks as an assistant for the University of Rhode Island women's team, before returning to his alma mater a season later to serve as an assistant for the men's program.

In addition to his coaching duties at the collegiate level, Grandpre has worked hard to establish his presence in area volleyball circles. He is the Director of New England Amateur Athletic Union and is the Founder and Director of the RIPP Boston Volleyball Club. He has also served as a Master Coach for the TCA Volleyball Club team, while serving as Director of Volleyball Operations for the Northeast Volleyball Showcase in Trumbull, Conn.
