Braden Zamore has been named Head Coach of the Daniel Webster College men’s and women’s volleyball programs. The announcement was made by Assistant Vice President of Student Affairs for Athletics Phil Rowe.

“I am excited Braden has accepted the opportunity to lead both our emerging women’s volleyball program as well as the resurrection of our men’s program,” said Rowe. “Braden brings outstanding experience and his passion for the game will truly energize both of our programs.”

Zamore comes to DWC after serving as Head Coach of the men’s and women’s volleyball programs as well as Assistant to the Athletic Director at Central Maine Community College in Auburn, Maine.

“I am very excited to be joining the DWC community,” said Zamore. “Having had the opportunity to see first-hand the commitment the College is making to its athletic program, the chance to lead both the men’s and women’s programs was an opportunity too good to pass up.”

“I am particularly impressed by how the College dedicates itself to academic success as well as athletic success and I look forward to helping both programs grow into annual challengers for conference championships,” Zamore added.

A native of Chesterfield, N.H., Zamore is a 2007 graduate of the University of Southern Maine (USM), where he earned a degree in Communication. He founded, played for four seasons, and served as Head Coach of the Huskies men’s volleyball club program.

Zamore served two seasons as assistant varsity coach and Head Coach of the junior varsity program at Gorham (Maine) High School and later served as Head Coach of the varsity team in 2006. During his tenure, Gorham earned three straight playoff appearances including two appearances in the conference championship game.

Along with his Gorham High experience, Zamore also served three seasons as Head Coach of the Portland North (Maine) Junior Olympics 18 and 16 year old girls’ programs, and also served one season as a volunteer assistant coach of the USM women’s varsity program.
