PROVO, Utah — BYU women's volleyball head coach Rob Neilson has announced the signing of transfer setter Kaylie Kofe.

A Bonneville High School graduate, Kofe led the State of Idaho in assists in all four years with the Bees.
Kofe will join Kylie Buttars, Brooke Hardy and Rachel Jepsen as the fourth member of the Cougars' 2026 signing class this summer.
