The men’s club volleyball team, fresh off a couple of victories this past weekend, is back in action. The Bison are coming off a fantastic season, finishing ninth at Nationals last year. With only one senior graduated from that team and the addition of several talented new members, the club volleyball team has high hopes for an even more successful season this year, which should be capped with a great performance at Nationals in Dallas, Texas.
The Bison began their season this past week with two solid victories over Lock Haven and Desales University. In their first match they handily defeated Lock Haven 3-1, behind solid performances from Mike Wolf ’14 and Andreas Bub ’15. The next match was a similar story. Led by Alex Lin ’13 and Captain Shane Kiefer ’14, the Orange and the Blue shut out Desales 3-0.
“All of us are really excited for how the season is shaping up,” Kiefer said. “The season has just got underway for us, but we started off with two big league wins and we really think that we can make a huge run at Nationals again this year.”
The Bison will be in action this Sunday at 12:30 p.m. in Davis Gym as they take on Penn Tech and Scranton.
