My name is Deidra Rader and I'm the head coach of the volleyball program entering my eighth season! After graduating from ORU in 2008 with a degree in Broadcast Journalism and a minor in German, I married my husband Daniel and we traversed the country while he was serving in the US Navy as a nuclear engineer. We are so happy to be settled back in Tulsa near our family. After listening to many Willie George podcasts on our frequent cross-country road trips between naval stations and Oklahoma, we knew my steps were ordered when I was offered to coach at this amazing school. We have 3 handsome boys - Jett and Jax are 8 and in 3rd grade and Knox is 5 and starting Kindergarten. Fun Fact: I’m a Roller Speedskating National Champion and am happy to show you the photos.
