MSJC Hosts Beach Volleyball Team Kickoff Celebration

2/11/2022

Mt. San Jacinto College (MSJC) held a kickoff celebration on Friday, Feb. 11 at its Menifee Valley Campus to honor its new Beach Volleyball team and facility.

The event was held at the Menifee Valley Campus MSJC Athletics & Kinesiology Complex, the home of MSJC's new Beach Volleyball team.

"This is the beginning of an exciting year at our new MSJC Athletics & Kinesiology Complex and we're proud to celebrate our new Beach Volleyball student-athletes and their new sand courts," said Dr. Roger Schultz, Superintendent/President of MSJC. "We also look forward to celebrating the opening of our new stadium at the complex later this year. This facility is a game-changer for the community.”

The $41 million Kinesiology and Athletics Complex is scheduled to open in Fall 2022. It will feature a 5,000-seat stadium with club boxes, providing a new gathering place to celebrate as MSJC hosts graduation ceremonies, community events, concerts, Eagles football and other athletics games, and more.

The college district’s 2014 voter-approved Measure AA, a $295 million facilities bond, is funding the construction of the stadium, which will include a field house; large classrooms and faculty offices; fitness/weight rooms, lockers, team rooms; and a press box.

"We're proud to welcome the Beach Volleyball team and its talented student-athletes to our department," said Patrick Springer, MSJC Dean of Kinesiology and Athletics. "This complex means so much and will enhance the education and training we can provide our student-athletes moving forward."

Leading the Beach Volleyball team is Serinna Eason, the MSJC Kinesiology Chair and Head Coach. She also led the indoor MSJC Volleyball team to its second straight conference championship in November.
