Assistant Coach 2009 MINER VOLLEYBALL media guide Miner Volleyball joined rest of the Missouri S&T sports programs – with the exception of football and swimming – in the Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) in 2007, along with some of the top NCAA Division II volleyball programs in the country. The GLVC has made its name throughout the last 28 years as a power in Division II basketball. In the last few years, however, the GLVC has seen success in many sports. The formation of the GLVC can be traced as far back as 1972 when the GLVC athletic directors of three member schools – Kentucky Wesleyan, Bel- Volleyball larmine, and Indiana State University at Evansville (now the University of Champions Southern Indiana) – began preliminary discussions about forming a basketball conference. Four years later, the University of Indi- 2008 - Lewis GLVC Staff 2007 - Lewis anapolis and Saint Joseph’s College expressed interest.
