- Assistant Coach
Travis Magorien enters his second season as an assistant coach after being named to the staff in July 2021.
With Magorien’s assistance in 2022, three sooners – Megan Wilson, Morgan Perkins and Alexis Shelton – were named All-Big 12 honorees. Wilson was also named to the AVCA Southwest All-Region Team, becoming the third Sooner to earn AVCA Freshman of the Year honors and AVCA All-Region Team accolades. In the classroom, five Sooners earned Academic All-Big 12 first-team honors for the third-straight season. Grace Talpash also was named to the College Sports Communicators (CSC, formerly CoSIDA) Academic All-District Team, becoming the program’s first Sooner to reach that achievement since Sallie McLaurin in 2013. Magorien also assisted Gray-Walton in signing its third consecutive top-20 recruiting class for 2023.
Alongside Gray-Walton, Magorien was an integral part in signing a top-10 recruiting class for 2022. In 2021, Wilson, Paige Anderson, Payton Dunn and Callie Kemohah were named All-Big 12 honorees. Wilson was also named AVCA Southwest Region Freshman of the Year, becoming the third freshman in program history to earn this honor. In the classroom, nine Sooners earned Academic All-Big 12 first-team honors for the second-straight season.
Magorien comes to Oklahoma after spending three seasons with the James Madison volleyball program. While at JMU, the Dukes went 49-18 and 22-7 in Colonial Athletic Association play. Magorien helped setter Sarah Martin earn All-CAA honors in 2018 and 2019. Under Magorian, Martin tallied 1,999 assists in her final two seasons with the Dukes.
Prior to James Madison, Magorien spent the 2017 season at the University of Kentucky as a volunteer assistant coach where he served as the primary setter coach and offensive coordinator. He helped guide the Wildcats to their first NCAA regional finals appearance in program history with an overall record of 29-4 and their first SEC Championship since 1988, finishing league play with a 17-1 record.
In 2017, Magorien was the primary setter coach for Madison Lilley who was an AVCA Second Team All-American, the SEC Freshman of the Year and ACVA Southeast Region Freshman of the Year. He guided the Wildcats offense that ranked first in the SEC and third in the NCAA in hitting percentage (.321).
Prior to Kentucky, Magorien spent two years at his alma mater, CSUN, as an assistant coach to the men's volleyball team (2016-17) and a volunteer assistant with the women's team (2015-16). He served as the primary setter coach for the men's team that ranked in the top ten nationally in assists per set and hitting percentage in 2016.
Magorien was a four-year team captain and letterwinner as a setter for the Matadors, where he led the team in sets for three consecutive years. He ranks seventh all-time in assists with 2,911 over 345 sets at CSUN.
While in college, Magorien also spent time coaching the Bones Volleyball Club, where he led them to a Bronze Medal in 2015 at the Boy's Junior Olympics Open Division. He coached and assisted in the development of four setters who would go on to play at the collegiate level.
Magorien is also involved in the USA Volleyball High Performance coaching pipeline, which allows him to coach and get to know potential top recruits in the nation.
A native of Agoura Hills, Calif., Magorien received a Bachelor of Arts in psychology from California State University Northridge in 2015 and later obtained his masters of coaching and athletic administration in 2017 from Concordia University-Irvine.
Magorien comes to Norman with wife, Brooke, who also was a volleyball player at CSUN, and their daughter, Brady.
