Liz Masakayan (born December 31, 1964)[1] is a Filipino-American former indoor and beach volleyball player, and current coach.

[1] Masakayan heard a lot of comments over four years from playing on a team full of boys but says, "I learned at an early age that if you just worked hard, had fun, and treated people nicely, that everything would fall into place, like winning".

[1] After winning the 1984 NCAA Championships at UCLA, where she still holds numerous single season and career records, Masakayan was given the Broderick Award for being the nation's premier collegiate volleyball player.

[11] As an indoor player, Masakayan was an outside hitter for the United States women's national volleyball team for five years, and competed at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.

[3] In 2001, she was the Santa Barbara champion, and in December captured the bronze medal at the FIVB (Fédération Internationale de Volleyball) season finale in Fortaleza, where Masakayan announced her retirement from international competition.

[11] Masakayan coached the beach volleyball team of Elaine Youngs and Nicole Branagh, who were ranked second in the AVP in 2007.
