Meet the instructors: Jacey & Jenelle Loewen
Twin sisters and Bearcat alumni, Jacey and Jenelle Loewen, currently on athletic scholarships at Providence Christian College in Pasadena, will lead the camp. Over the past summer, the sisters showcased their volleyball prowess overseas, competing in Italy, Portugal, and Croatia at an elite level. Jacey received a nomination for Player of the Year and Attacker of the Year for the California Pacific Conference this fall.
Both Jacey and Jenelle made significant contributions during their time playing at Paso Robles High School. Jacey served as Co-Captain of her varsity team and was named Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year, while Jenelle earned the title “Pride of the Bearcat.” Beyond their athletic pursuits, the Loewen sisters have impacted their community, coaching club volleyball for 13-14-year-old girls in both Paso Robles and the Los Angeles area. During the COVID-19 pandemic, they led outdoor volleyball clinics, providing teens an opportunity to learn fundamentals and maintain an exercise outlet.
