Schneider added, “We appreciate Lexie's six years of service which saw her teams win 91 games and compete in several of the conference tournaments at the end of the year.”
 
Baack's 2011 team finished with an 11-18 record making her overall record as a Bobcat coach with 91 wins and 97 losses.  This was the first year for the 'Cats in the Heart of America Athletic Conference (HAAC) after having competed during Baack's first five years in the Midlands Collegiate Athletic Conference (MCAC). 



 
Her 2011 team finished as the HAAC regular season with a 4-5 record making them the sixth-seeded team in the post-season tournament.  In the HAAC quarterfinals, the Bobcats took Evangel University, a team that swept them earlier in the season, to five games, falling 15-9 in the fifth and deciding set.
 
Baack had 14 NAIA-Daktronics Scholar-Athletes, which includes six anticipated honorees later this fall. 
 
A native of Hibbing, Minn., Baack previously served as the assistant women's volleyball coach at Mayville State University in Mayville, N.D.  She was also a camp director for three summers with Pacesetter Sports Camps of Minnesota and a Junior Olympic volleyball coach in Mayville and Nashwauk, Minn.
 
Baack earned her bachelor of science degree in education from Mayville State University in 2005.
 
“After six years with the Bobcat volleyball program, I am sad to end my run at Peru, but am also very happy to see the success and strides that the program has made in the past few years,” said Baack.  Continuing, Baack added, “This is due to the tremendous amount of talented and dedicated student-athletes that have walked through our doors.  They have made the program what it is today.  I will miss working so closely with these hard working young women.”
 
Schneider noted that the College is taking an aggressive approach in the search process to replace Baack with the intent of hiring someone to start the second semester.
