1990 Jennies Volleyball Team
The 1990 Jennies' volleyball team produced a 42-5 record, an MIAA championship, an NCAA tournament bid and career coaching win number 500 for Peggy Martin. Martin's 500th career win came on Sept. 29 at Division II powerhouse Portland State University, the same team that would end their season at the NCAA Division II finals in Bakersfield, Calif.

In addition to Martin's 500th victory, another historic moment for the Jennies came at the Division II finals where Becky Belland was named Division II Player of the Year. A three-time All-America selection, Belland finished her outstanding career at Central Missouri as the Division II career leader in kills and blocks. She also was named MIAA MVP and was joined on the first-team all-MIAA squad by Kristie Tompkins and Corrie Paul, while Martin was named MIAA Coach of the Year. The Jennies' winning percentage of .894 in 1990 is second only to that of the Jennies' 1987 NCAA runner-up team, which had a .913 winning percentage.
