Vinh Nguyen is in his first season with the Titans and comes to Fullerton with an extensive coaching resume that dates back more than 20 years.

With the Titans he will work with the middles and implement the blocking systems, as well as spearhead film breakdown and game/practice analysis with his extensive knowledge of technology. He will also help kick off Titan volleyball camps beginning in the summer of 2009.

For the past 12 season, Nguyen, has been an assistant coach at Cal Poly Pomona where he helped Head Coach Rosie Wegrich lift the Broncos to six seasons with at least 18 wins and a program-best 24-3 mark in 2005. That same year, Pomona won its first California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) championship since 1990.

Over the last nine years Nguyen was the Broncos summer camp director and taught as a kinesiology professor on campus as well.

In 2007, Nguyen was hired by the USA Men's National Team as part of their coaching staff to help them team prepare for their run at World League, Pan-Am Cup, Americas Cup and Norceca Cup championships, which resulted in two gold medals, a silver and a bronze.

Nguyen has also been involved with the USA High Performance Pipeline since 2003. He has coached several development A2 camps since then and was recently asked to be the head coach at the development A2 camp in Kalamazoo, Michigan. He was also the host of the USA High Performance Holiday Camp in 2007 and 2008 which featured some of the best youth athletes in the USA Pipeline.

In 2005 Nguyen was named head coach Southern California Youth National Team that finished sixth-place at the USA High Performance Championships in Austin, Texas. A year later, his Top Gun 18 Red club team won a gold medal at the USA Junior Olympic Invitational in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Prior to his work at Cal Poly Pomona, Nguyen coached at five Southern California high schools (Hoover, San Gabriel, Arcadia, Alhambra and La Habra) and worked with the San Gabriel, Magnum and Power Volleyball Clubs.

In 1996, Nguyen co-founded the Top Gun Volleyball Club, one of Southern California's most respected youth volleyball programs that has trained more than 1500 athletes since its inception.

Nguyen played at Mt. San Antonio College and Long Beach City College before transferring into the Big West Conference with Long Beach State. He finished his schooling and graduated from Cal Poly Pomona in 2000 with a degree in kinesiology.
