Keegan Kuhr has been the head coach of the Keyano Huskies men's volleyball team since 2014. Under his leadership, the team has grown into a nationally ranked team, earning a spot at Nationals twice in the last three years, and winning a bronze medal in 2017-2018 Canadian Collegiate Athletics Association championship. Kuhr's team has also performed well provincially, winning the north division the last three years, with two silver medals, and one bronze at provincials. 2019 was another successful year for the team they got gold at provincials.
Keegan found his love of volleyball in grade 7 when he started playing volleyball at St. Anne's school. At Father Patrick Mercredi High School, he played on the Senior team by grade 10, and earned city championships three tears in a row, two zone titles, and a second at 4A provincials. After his early successes, Keegan went on to become a Keyano Husky, playing for the men's volleyball team for three years, and helped them make playoffs, and earn a spot at nationals for the first time in team history. He finished his player career with two years at SAIT, winning a provincial championship, and a Silver medal at nationals.
After his two year stint at SAIT, Keegan returned home to Fort McMurray, and the Huskies. He served as the assistant coach of the Men's Volleyball team under Coach Trent Mason for two years, before taking over the reins in 2014.
Kuhr is supported by a team of assistant coaches and a strength and conditioning coach:
- Karissa Kuhr (Athletic Therapist)
- Natalie Doucette (Student Mental Performance Consultant)
- Nicolas Del Bianco (AWA Coach)
- Dwayne Vigilance (Strength and Conditioning Coach)
