Pasadena’s Caryme Molina
By Doug Brown
Pasadena’s Caryme Molina has been a force on the court since she first suited up for the Eagles, and now as a senior, she takes center stage as our LOVB Spotlight Athlete.
A four-year varsity standout, Molina has put together one of the most impressive careers in Pasadena ISD volleyball history, surpassing 1,500 kills, 2,000 assists, and 1,500 digs.
That rare all-around production speaks volumes about her versatility, consistency, and relentless drive to win.
The daughter of longtime coach Carmen Martinez, Molina grew up around the game, developing an advanced volleyball IQ that sets her apart. Whether she’s running the offense, putting away points at the net, or anchoring the defense, she finds ways to elevate everyone around her.
Her leadership has been invaluable for a Pasadena program that is currently playing above the .500 mark and trending upward in district play.
Molina’s talents have not gone unnoticed at the next level. She recently committed to continue her career at UTEP, where she’ll bring her competitive fire and polished skill set to Conference USA.
For Pasadena, she remains the heartbeat of the Eagles — a player worth the price of admission and a true game-changer every time she steps on the court.

THE BOSS: Stallman takes over John Cooper School volleyball with an aggressive game plan
04 Sep, 2025
The John Cooper School volleyball program is turning the page with the arrival of Rachel Stallman as its new head coach.
Stallman brings a wealth of experience from both the college and club ranks, where she built a reputation for player development, high-energy leadership, and a passion for the game. Now, she looks to channel that expertise into a Dragons program eager to take the next step.
Stallman inherits a roster that balances emerging young talent with seasoned senior leadership, a combination that could make the Dragons one of the more intriguing private school programs in Greater Houston.
Her focus is on instilling a culture of competitiveness and accountability, while also creating an environment where players can grow both on and off the court. With 2025 on the horizon, expectations are high.
The Dragons are aiming not only to compete in a challenging conference but to make noise in the postseason as well. Stallman’s fresh perspective and proven ability to maximize her roster’s potential could be the spark that pushes John Cooper to new heights.
For the Dragons community, there’s a new sense of excitement — and plenty of reasons to believe the best is yet to come.
