Coaches' Bio
Varsity Head Coach- Kaleigh Beason
I grew up in Winston-Salem and attended Calvary Day School and Calvary Baptist Church up until college. I was involved in numerous sports at Calvary, but my favorite was always volleyball. My volleyball career started on Calvary’s middle school team in 6th grade as a setter and continued on the varsity team through high school. I went to Appalachian State University and earned a degree in Nutrition and Dietetics. I played intramural volleyball throughout college and I also played in an adult league in Boone and helped out some with a local middle school team. After college I completed a graduate certificate in middle and secondary level teaching and earned my state teaching license.
I have been married to my husband, Ben Beason for six years this August. We lived in Charlotte for five years and I was a high school and middle school science teacher at Hickory Grove Christian School. I also was able to coach the middle volleyball team for three years. We moved to Winston-Salem in January for my husband to take the Student Pastor position here at Calvary Baptist Church. We both love students and enjoy building relationships with them and pointing them to Jesus. I am currently staying at home with our two kids, our daughter Emory who is two and a half, and our son Caden who is turning one this summer. I am thrilled to be back home and have the privilege to serve at both my home church and now my alma mater!
JV Head Coach/Varsity Assistant Coach - Melissa Eschler
Melissa and her husband are church members of Calvary and have two children who’ve attended preschool at Calvary during the five years they’ve lived in Winston Salem. Originally from upstate New York, Melissa forged an impressive track record in her high school volleyball career, earning multiple MVP and all-star team awards. She went on to attend Grove City College, where she played competitive recreational volleyball and basketball and earned the college’s Women’s Athletic Association Senior Athlete Award. Her volleyball playing experience spans a broad spectrum of competition including grass, sand, and indoor leagues and tournaments. Prior to relocating to NC, Melissa coached varsity volleyball at Schenectady Christian School in NY for three years. She is excited to join Calvary’s volleyball leadership as head JV coach and assistant varsity coach.
MS Assistant Coach-
MS Assistant Coach- Rachel Lawrence
I was born and raised in Davie County, graduated from Davie High School in 2003. Since then I traveled around and landed in Virginia Beach where I attended college. I have been an athlete in many sports with my love being in softball and volleyball. I have actively played intramural volleyball and competitive recreational leagues for both sports. Winning MVP player of the year on multiple occasions and the most hustle award. I worked in the medical field for 10 years until I realized my calling was in education. I am continuing my education at Liberty University in Elementary Education and stepping into a new position as one of the Orton Gillingham speech therapist at Calvary.
I currently have daughter who attends Calvary and have taken to coaching the many sports she plays until the recent years. I have enjoyed taking a step back to watch her play and blossom into an incredible athlete of her own. With that being said I am excited to jump back into coaching and assist volleyball. I always have had the love for the game and I cannot wait to help the girls reach their full potential with a positive attitude and grit!
- I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. Philippians 4:13
