Kyrie (Dorn) Adams was one of the driving forces behind the Liberty volleyball program’s success in the late 1990’s, helping Liberty post 20 or more wins during each of her four seasons on the court.
The Lady Flames won a combined 93 matches during Adams’ stellar four-year career, resulting in two Big South regular season titles, two Big South Tournament victories and the program’s first two trips to the NCAA Volleyball Championship (1997 and 1999).
Adams was a three-time All-Big South selection and was named the Big South Player of the Year and Co-Scholar-Athlete of the Year in 1998. During her standout junior season, she led the Big South in kills per set (4.12), while sending down a career-best 424 kills.
When she graduated from Liberty, the native of East Northport, N.Y., ranked third in program history with 1,476 career kills and fifth with 1,235 career digs. Adams was the fifth player in program history to join the 1,000/1,000 club (career kills/digs), helping her earn a spot on the 1990-99 Big South Volleyball All-Decade team. Following her time with the Lady Flames, Adams played with D.C. Women’s Pro Team and overseas with Athletes in Action.
