The Keiser volleyball team released its 2025 schedule on Friday. The upcoming season features 25 matches, including 14 at home inside the Student Life Center.
Keiser will open the season by hosting a 12-team tournament, where the Seahawks will face Taylor and Montana Western in their first matches. The bracket-style format ensures each team plays four games, with the opportunity to advance to the championship or consolation bracket.
Coming off a strong 2024 campaign, the Seahawks finished with a 28-8 overall record and a 9-5 mark in Sun Conference play, earning the No. 3 seed in the conference tournament. Their season concluded in the semifinal round, with four players earning All-Conference honors—highlighted by SUN Player of the Year and the program's first SUN Freshman of the Year, Emma Friese.
The 2025 season marks a new chapter for Keiser Volleyball under first-year Head Coach Dan Bergren. Hired in February, Bergren brings a championship pedigree, having helped lead Indiana Wesleyan to back-to-back NAIA National Championships (2023 & 2024) during his tenure as assistant coach. His resume also includes four Crossroads League titles and deep postseason runs, including appearances in the NAIA Sweet 16 (2020) and Elite Eight (2019). During his time with the Wildcats, Bergrendeveloped 10 NAIA All-Americans and 22 all-conference players. He was named the 2024 AVCA NAIA Assistant Coach of the Year and was a two-time AVCA Mid-Central Region Assistant Coach of the Year (2020 & 2024). During his six seasons with IWU, the Wildcats posted a record of 179-27.
"I'm looking forward to getting the 2025 Keiser Volleyball season underway," said Bergen. "I feel we've brought in a group that can compete at a high level, along with seasoned returners who know the expectations. We're hosting two preseason tournaments that include six teams from the 2024 NAIA Tournament and programs from top NAIA conferences."
"Those tournaments will help us evaluate the team early and prepare for the Sun Conference schedule. With a new coaching staff, new faces, and strong returners, we're excited about continuing the upward trajectory of this program."
