Minot State University named Travis Ward as its new head volleyball coach. Ward becomes the Beavers sixth head coach in the school’s history.

Ward spent the past three seasons turning around the Laramie County Community College (Wyo.) program. LCCC had eight wins the season before Ward took over. In just two seasons, he build them into a nationally recognized team. In 2009, LCCC was 31-8 and ranked in the top 20. In 2010, LCCC finished the season at the No. 7 ranked team in the country. He also oversaw five Academic All- Ameri-cans during his coaching stint at LCCC and coached nine all-region players including the school’s first All-American honor. Prior to his time at Laramie County, he spent three seasons as Associate Head Coach at Western Oregon, helping guide the university to its first berth in the NCAA Division II National Tournament.

He takes over a program that is not only moving to NCAA Division II, but moving into one of the top con-ference in the country - the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference - in 2012.

Ward, a native of Spokane, Wash., also has experience at the prep level as he was the head coach at St. George High School in Spokane earning back-to-back state tournament appearances in 2003-04.

He holds a Bachelor of Arts in counseling and intercul-tural students from Prairie College in Three Hills, Alberta and earned a Bachelor of Science in business and exercise science from Western Oregon. He played three seasons for the Prairie College men’s volleyball team.
