TALLAHASSEE - Florida State head volleyball coach Lindsay Allman announced the addition of assistant coach Ángel Pérez on Tuesday afternoon.
Pérez has a distinguished background as he spent the last three seasons as the head coach of the Columbus Fury in the MLV. Pérez, a Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico, native, had a great run as the leader of the Las Pinkin de Corozal in Puerto Rico's Women's Superior Volleyball League. Pérez led the team to championships in 2022 and 2023 and was named the league's Manager of the Year in back-to-back seasons.
"It is a true privilege to join the staff of a program that seamlessly pairs elite athletic tradition with absolute academic excellence," Pérez said. "This is a fantastic opportunity for me and my family, and we are all excited to establish ourselves down in Tallahassee. I am deeply thankful to Vice President and Director of Athletics Michael Alford and most of all to Head Coach Lindsay Allman for this incredible opportunity. From day one, my focus is to seamlessly support Coach Allman's leadership and collaborate with the awesome and dedicated staff she has assembled here in Tallahassee. I am stepping into this gym humble, hungry, and entirely eager to grow and give our student athletes my absolute best."
Pérez was one of the most decorated Puerto Rican volleyball players as he had professional stints in France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Romania and Slovenia. As a member of the Puerto Rican National Team, he helped them to a silver finish at the 2007 NORCECA Championship and a bronze finish at the 2010 Pan-American Cup. Perez served as the team captain from 2013-18.
Pérez played one season of college volleyball at BYU before returning to Puerto Rico to play at Polytechnic University from 2002-06.
"We are excited to welcome Angel to the program! He will fit in perfectly with the continuity we already have within our staff and bring a different lens coming from the professional level both as a player and a head coach. I am excited for him to bring his wealth of knowledge to the program, and I have no doubt he will make an impact quickly." Head Coach Lindsay Allman said.
Pérez is married to Zuania Fernandez and the couple have two daughters, Gabriela and Bella.
