About Our Coach

Kaylie McHugh – TCU Beach Volleyball (2022): A fierce competitor and proven leader, Kaylie McHugh brought experience, grit, and a relentless work ethic to TCU Beach Volleyball in 2022. Competing primarily in the No. 4 and No. 5 spots, McHugh was a steady force during one of the most pivotal seasons in program history. Her poise under pressure and consistent play helped power the Horned Frogs to milestone wins—including a defining upset over No. 3 Florida State—and cemented TCU’s rise on the national stage.

Before joining the beach squad, McHugh was a standout libero at Tulane, known for her court awareness and defensive tenacity. That foundation translated seamlessly to the sand, where she quickly became a difference-maker. Whether locking down critical points or fueling the team’s energy, Kaylie’s impact extended well beyond the scoreboard. Her adaptability, leadership, and championship mindset helped set the tone for a culture of excellence at TCU.
