Cheltenham Boys Volleyball Preview

CHELTENHAM BOYS VOLLEYBALL PREVIEW

Coach:  Chris Manser (5th year)

Assistant coaches:  Aldo Braccia (5th tear) and Tessa Siewert (1st year)

Last year’s record:  4-15 (3-13 Suburban One Continental)

Notable losses:  Geoff Harris (Setter); Jordan Blackwell (OH)

Key returners: Brett Mayne (Sophomore/OH); Brandon Smith (Junior/MB); Ben Doyle (Sophomore/MB); Sam Spector (Junior/DS); Tommy Huynh (Senior/DS)

Others to watch: Austin Lee (Sophomore/Setter)

Strengths/Question Marks:  We return four underclassmen with varsity experience but will have to replace Geoff Harris, our setter for the last four years.  With new players in leadership positions, we will have to gel as a team in order to find success on the floor.

Outlook:  Led by a core group of sophomores, we hope to continue to improve and gain experience while being competitive against the top teams in our league.  We possess a tenacious and gritty attitude that we hope will make up for our youth and inexperience.
