Episode Notes

Indy Ignite head coach and reigning MLV Coach of the Year Lauren Bertolacci joins Set 6 to reflect on Indy’s record-breaking season — and explain why the team is capable of even more in 2027.

Lauren discusses the Ignite’s commitment to continuity, the importance of building an athlete-first culture and how her international coaching experience continues to shape her approach. She also opens up about leadership, representation and her journey from never envisioning herself as a volleyball coach to becoming one of the sport’s most respected voices.

Plus, Lauren shares her vision for making Indy a destination franchise, reacts to the influx of world-class talent across MLV and explains why last season was nowhere near the Ignite’s ceiling.
