Peter Viteritti was named the 11th head coach in SNHU women's volleyball history on March 16, 2011.

“I am confident that Peter can build on the strong foundation that has been built in our volleyball program recently.  He has been successful at three institutions and I am confident that he will have success here as well,” said then-SNHU Director of Athletics Chip Polak at the time of his hiring.

In 2012, Viteritti guided the Penmen to their highest victory total since the 2007 season.

Most recently, Viteritti was the head women’s volleyball coach at Eastern Connecticut State University during the 2008 and 2009 seasons.  With the Warriors, in his first season he improved the team from 11-29 to a 20-12 record and a third place in the Little East Conference after being picked to finish last.  The team was regionally ranked for two months and the squad was also ranked among the Division III defensive leaders.

From 2002-06, Viteritti was the head men’s and women’s volleyball coach at Division II East Stroudsburg University.  At ESU, he led the women’s squad to a third-place finish in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference.  That year, the Warriors has three All-PSAC performers and one All-Region selection.  He also led the men’s program to its best finish in the Eastern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association in 2004.  Both the men’s and women’s programs also had some of the highest GPAs among all ESU teams.

Viteritti started his coaching career at Division I Holy Cross as head women’s volleyball coach from 1997-2002.  He inherited a team that had gone winless (0-23) the season before his arrival and proceeded to win 23 games over his final two seasons.  He improved the Crusaders’ winning percentage for five straight years and coached one Patriot League Player of the Year (Katie Lynch) and one Academic All-American (Carissa Bennett).

A resident of Beverly, Mass., Viteritti is a 1994 graduate of Plymouth State University, earning his degree in Management with a minor in Marketing.

Danielle Coffey was named assistant volleyball coach at SNHU prior to the 2012 season after wrapping up a stellar four-year career with the Penmen.

A two-time All-State selection at Westborough High School, Coffey led the Rangers to a 23-1 record and a Massachusetts state championship as a senior.

Coffey graduated from SNHU in 2012 with a degree in Sport Management.

A 2012 graduate of the University of New England, Nealon played one year for the Nor'Easters and was also a three-year member of the men's club team at UNE, serving as team captain as a junior.  Nealon is a Manchester native and a 2008 graduate of Manchester Central HS, where she lettered in volleyball and swimming, serving as team captain in both sports.
