Sara Horn played a key role in the success of the Wayne State College volleyball program in 2005, her first season with the Wildcats. Wayne State earned its first-ever trip to the NCAA Division II North Central Regional Volleyball Tournament after finishing with a 25-10 overall record, the most wins by a Wildcat volleyball squad as an NCAA Division II school.
Horn is in charge of strength and conditioning of WSC volleyball players and serves as camp director. She also handles practice preparation, team travel arrangements, scouting and plays a key role in recruiting. Under the assistance of Horn, Wayne State compiled a 10-4 mark in the Northern Sun Conference to tie for second place in the league.

The former Sara Westling brings a wealth of volleyball knowledge and experience to the Wildcat coaching staff. After a stellar high school career at Lincoln Northeast, Horn played her first year of collegiate volleyball at the University of Pacific. She then transferred to the University of Nebraska where she finished her collegiate career. She was a member of Nebraska's national championship team in 2000 and was a three time All-Academic Big 12 selection. While playing at Nebraska and Pacific, Horn learned from two of the best coaches in college volleyball (John Cook at Nebraska and John Dunning, now at Stanford).

Sara is married to Guy Horn, a graduate assistant athletic trainer at Wayne State College. The couple reside in Winside.
