Hackensack native and current FDU women's volleyball coach Stacey Recanati '90 is the first volleyball player inducted into the Fairleigh Dickinson Hall of Fame. The 1990 graduate was a standout on the volleyball team in arguably its strongest period of competition. Recanati was a three-time All-Northeast Conference selection in her four-year FDU career and was named the NEC's Player of the Year as a sophomore in 1987 and as a senior in 1989. She helped lead the Knights to three consecutive Northeast Conference Volleyball Championships from 1987 through 1989 and to a 1989 bid to the Women's Volleyball Invitational Tournament. In her four years on the team, Recanati's Knights posted a record of 122-54. Two years after graduating from FDU, she took over the reigns of the FDU program as Head Volleyball Coach. In nine seasons to date as head coach, Recanati has posted a 106-190 overall record and a 42-31 mark in NEC play. The 1998 Northeast Conference Coach of the year, Recanati has led her alma mater to success in the Northeast Conference. Twice in the last four years, FDU has finished as runner-up at the NEC Tournament, including a 1998 championship match appearance.
