In 2018, Jim Dietz enters his 13th season at the helm of the Lincoln Land Community College volleyball program, compiling a 412-141 record, the winningest coach in LLCC history. In the past 12 seasons, the Loggers have been a region runner-up eight times and region champions four times (2012, 2015-2017) reaching the national title game twice (2015, 2016) with a Final Four (third place) finish in 2017. The team has finished in the NJCAA Top Twenty in 10of the past 11 seasons, reaching as high as No. 4 in 2012 and 2015, No. 2 in 2016 and No. 2 in 2017. Under Dietz’s tutelage, LLCC had its first All-American selection in 2010, and has had 10 more selections in the seven seasons since. In addition, in 2013, LLCC alum Emily Orrick, while playing at Illinois State University, was selected Missouri Valley Conference Libero of the Year twice, as well as MVP for Illinois State’s volleyball squad, capping it with an invitation to tryout for the U.S. National Team roster.

As a coach, Dietz has received multiple honors. He was named 2015 AVCA Midwest Coach of the Year for taking LLCC to the NJCAA National title game. In addition, he has been selected as Region XXIV Coach of the Year twice and District K Coach of the Year four times.

Dietz is a respected figure in central Illinois volleyball having built the St. Anthony High School program in Effingham, leading it to its first ever winning season, regional and sectional titles, first 30-win seasons (in any sport), as well as its first state-qualifying volleyball team. He remains the winningest coach in St. Anthony history (for all sports).

Since 2014, Dietz has served as a USAV High Performance Coach, both as an evaluator for both the boys’ and girls’ programs and as a coach, working at national-level camps for Future-Selects in Las Vegas and New Orleans. Heavily involved in club volleyball, Dietz has coached all ages of teams and helped found two clubs, Crossroads Volleyball in Effingham and Capital Area Volleyball in Springfield. He has also contributed essays and writings to USAV along with presentations at various coaching clinics.

Before moving to Illinois, Dietz worked three years as an assistant at Ohio State (including the 1994 Big Ten and NCAA Final Four squad) and one year each with the Iowa State University and University of Illinois volleyball programs.

Dietz has 24 years of experience as an instructor and coach at the junior high, high school and college levels. In 2013, he published his first coaching textbook titled The Human Side of Coaching with Championship Productions. His second book, Like Heck She Doesn’t Look Like a Volleyball Player, was released in 2017.

Dietz is married to Julie (Tresnak) Dietz. They have two adult children, a third in high school and three dogs (Kaiju, Jaeger and Spike).
