Reynaud received the prestigious George J. Fischer Volleyball Leader Award from USA Volleyball in 1996 in recognition of her contributions to the sport. She is a former president of the American Volleyball Coaches Association and currently is a member of the Volleyball Hall of Fame selection committee.

"I have found a lot of useful information from all the coaches who contributed to writing She Can Coach! It is a perfect book for any female coach, especially for somebody like me, who is still learning the profession, and who is a first time head coach...I was amazed by what a great selection of topics you have chosen, and a variety of coaches who covered those topics. I loved that all the coaches had different writing styles and philosophies, so I could get a different perspective from each one of them."
