Schulte, a former standout outside hitter for Xavier University, joins Shymansky’s staff after serving two years at Indiana. While at Indiana, she assisted in many phases of the program, including recruiting, scouting, team travel and summer camps.

Prior to her stint at Indiana, Schulte spent three years at the University of Dayton, serving as the recruiting coordinator and helping tutor two Atlantic-10 Freshman-of-the-Year honorees.
“Sally is going to give the program a new and exciting dimension in recruiting,” said Shymansky. “She has had great success as a recruiter in the past and we expect her to continue that momentum here at Tech. I am very impressed with her experience playing and coaching over the past eight years, and I expect our defense and outside hitters to benefit immensely.”
A native of Fort Wright, Ky., Schulte was a four-time all-conference selection for the Musketeers, earning all-Midwestern Collegiate Conference honors in 1993 and 1994 and first-team all-Atlantic-10 honors in 1995 and 1996. She finished her career as the school’s career kill leader (1,779),while ranking second in career digs (1,338) and also owns the school record for kills in a match (35).
Schulte, 26, graduated from Xavier in 1997 with a bachelor’s degree in health and physical education and earned a master of science in educational administration from Dayton in 1999.
