After college, Brock transitioned into coaching and founded Reef Volleyball Club in 2001 with a vision of creating a program where athletes could receive elite coaching in an environment built on integrity, accountability, and a genuine sense of family. He also spent three seasons coaching at California Lutheran University, serving as the program’s first assistant coach before stepping in as Interim Head Coach.

Throughout his coaching career, Brock’s teams have earned numerous championship titles and medal-winning finishes, while helping generations of Reef athletes continue their volleyball careers at colleges and universities across the country.
Off the court, Brock is a devoted husband to his wife, Natalie, and proud father of six. When he’s not in the gym, he finds time to tend to their small family farm—raising sheep, pigs, chickens, dogs, and their cat—balancing his competitive drive with a grounded, family-centered lifestyle.
