Beth (Karasek) Falls returns to Tech as an assistant coach--but with a new surname--after being hired by Head Coach Trish Knight on August 6, 2009, for her fourth season (2006-2008), this time in the key position of first assistant to Knight. Prior to her time at Texas Tech, Falls was an outside hitter for SMU from 2001-2004. During her playing years, she was named to the All-WAC team three times with a first-team honor her final year. She was one of only two freshmen named to the team in 2001. As a senior, she finished 40th in the NCAA in kills per game, averaging 4.62. She was named to the SMU Invitational and Fremont Investment and Loan Invitation teams in 2004. Following her collegiate career, Falls played professionally in France for Lyon Saint Fons Volley from August 2005 to May 2006. The Caldwell, Texas, native graduated in 2005 from SMU with her degree in business management and a minor in psychology. Married to Jeremy Falls of Ropesville, Texas, last winter, her name is now infinitely easier to pronounce. |
