Bacon will be entering her first season as assistant coach
Bacon will be starting her coaching career at Black Hills State after spending the last four years playing volleyball for Eastern Washington University, where she was coached by DuBose for her last three seasons in Cheney, Washington.
Bacon played all four seasons as an eagle. She finished her career with almost 600 kills, and 243 total blocks. In her sophomore season she had 177 kills in only 91 sets while reaching more than 50 total blocks. Her best year was in her junior season when she had a career high of 181 kills and a career-high 83 total blocks. Finally in her senior season, she had 148 kills with 78 blocks. She had 16 kills in one game versus South Dakota State during her sophomore season which ended up as a career high, while the most blocks in a game were nine versus Western Kentucky. She earned Big Sky All-Academic Honors in two of the four years. She will provide valuable insight to DuBose.
The new assistant coach attended Eastern Washington University from 2021-2025 and graduated this past May with a degree in psychology and a minor in criminal justice.
