JV SOFTBALL

Jannelle Jones -

I joined Piedmont Hills High School in June 2006 teaching Mathematics during Summer School. Then I became a full time teacher in the Physical Education department starting August 2006. Since I had played softball since I was 5 years old and had coached softball at Yerba Buena and Oak Grove I was asked to coach the JV softball team in 2006. I enjoy developing athletes in a competitive atmosphere where the main focus is skill development. In 2017 I became the cheer coach to bring cheer back to PHHS. In 2018 I became Athletic Director.

I absolutely love the game of volleyball. I have playing since I was 5 years old, continuing into both high school and college volleyball.

Recently, I have been at Piedmont Hills High School coaching from 2016-present. I am a competitive, passionate coach who loves developing players into their full potential.

JUNIOR VARSITY GIRS VOLLEYBALL

Chrizia Dela Rosa

I love sports and being competitive. I played volleyball from elementary to high school, and through college, I played in intramural sports. I have a passion for teaching as well, so coaching was a natural fit for me. I began coaching in 2014, where I started the Boys' volleyball program and helped out with the Girls' team at Miami Northwestern High School in Miami, Florida until 2016. In 2016, I moved back to California and focused on coaching Girls' Basketball at KIPP: San Jose Collegiate for a couple of years, while helping out here and there with the Girls' Volleyball team. Recently, I have been volunteering with Girls' Volleyball team here at PHHS, and am so honored to be the coach for the Boys' JV team.

I love the game of Tennis. I played all 4 years of my high school career. When the chance to coach at PHHS presented itself, I took it. I am now going into my 3rd year of coaching. I have been at Piedmont Hills for 9 years as a Custodian and I am now the Head Custodian. I hope that everyone that plays for Boys Varsity Tennis has a blast and becomes an even better person by the end of their season. Team work, camaraderie, and fun is my main mission. I look forward to coaching and playing tennis with the crew everyday.
