Brooke Niles
AVP Sand Volleyball and UC Santa Barbara Women's Volleyball Assistant Coach
Brooke Niles, one of the most versatile players in Gaucho history, continues to bring her unrivaled competitiveness and leadership qualities to the program in her third year as an assistant coach. A 2003 graduate of UCSB with a degree in law and society and a four-year Gaucho letter winner, Niles is involved with all facets of running a high-profile Division I program, with particular emphasis on mentoring the Gaucho setters.
The Woodland Hills, California native put an exclamation mark on her outstanding playing career by earning AVCA Third Team All-American recognition in 2002. As Santa Barbara’s starting setter and a team co-captain two years ago, Niles ranked third nationally with 13.95 assists per game, while her 1,437 total helpers were the seventh-most ever in a single season in school history. A three-time All-Big West honoree, she was named the conference freshman of the year in 1999 while primarily playing outside hitter. Niles saw action at every position except middle blocker during her collegiate career. Her 1,323 career digs rank seventh all-time at UCSB.
She has since taken her game to the sand, reaching a high ranking of number 9 on the AVP Tour in 2004. As a coach, Niles guided the Santa Barbara Volleyball Club's traveling team of 16-year-old girls in 2003 after spending two years with the Santa Ynez Volleyball Club. She also coordinates an elite-level beach volleyball summer camp for youth players, held on the UCSB campus.
'I am a 24-year-old professional beach volleyball player and assistant volleyball coach at UC Santa Barbara. I have been drinking TAHITIAN NONI™ Juice since November, 2004, and have been amazed by the results. I was introduced to TAHITIAN NONI Juice during a volleyball road trip by Kathy Gregory, who graciously offered me the last of her bottle. TAHITIAN NONI Juice has become an essential part of my regimen due to all of the traveling, early morning training sessions, and long days at the tournaments.
'TAHITIAN NONI™ Juice has helped me make great strides on the AVP tour, and is one of the most important aspects of my training.'
