Willowbrook Girls Volleyball Head Coach Irene Mason has had an outstanding career with the school’s athletic program, which includes securing her 200^th career victory at the end of last season.

To celebrate that incredible accomplishment, Willowbrook Athletics honored and recognized Mason during a ceremony before the Varsity Girls Volleyball Team’s 2026 season opener on Sept. 2 at home against Lyons Township.

Mason is no stranger to success with girls volleyball: she also was selected as a 2023 Girls High School Region Coach of the Year by the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA). During the 2023 season, Mason led the Warriors to a West Suburban Conference Gold Division Championship, an Illinois High School Association (IHSA) Regional Championship, an IHSA Sectional Championship, an IHSA Super-Sectional Championship, a third-place finish in the IHSA State Finals and a school record of 40 wins. 

Willowbrook congratulates coach Mason and her team and wishes them luck for another tremendous season.
