Saint Anselm College

Saint Anselm head volleyball coach Anna Platek announced the hiring of Eric Roderick as an assistant coach for the program in August of 2026.

Roderick joins the Hawks volleyball program after two years as head coach of the Franklin Pierce volleyball team from 2023-2024. In his first season as head coach in 2023, Roderick posted an 8-11 overall record (.421 winning percentage) and 3-8 in the Northeast 10 conference. Senior libero Morgan Schmutzler was named to the Northeast 10 All-Conference Third Team. In his second season, Roderick guided three Ravens to CSC Acacdemic All-District honors for the efforts on and off the court. 

Roderick previously served two seasons as a graduate assistant coach at Franklin Pierce, where the team combined for a 22-25 overall record across that span. In 2022, Roderick assisted in a season that saw the Ravens finish 10-13 overall, which earned them their first appearance in the Northeast 10 Conference postseason since the 2019 campaign. In 2021, he helped the Ravens to a 12-12 overall record (6-7 NE10) through the fall season. 

A native of Salem, N.H., Roderick graduated from Rivier Univeristy with a degree in business management and was a member of the Raiders men's volleyball team for four years. Roderick also earned his MBA in Sport Management from Franklin Pierce in 2023.
