CANANDAIGUA, N.Y. - The Lakers men's volleyball program remains undefeated at home with an unblemished record of 4-0 on the Putt Moore Court as the team prepares for a road trip to Glen Ellyn, Il. for the College of DuPage Invitational. The Lakers hosted the Golden Eagles of SUNY Brockport Club for the team's first matchup this season and would earn a clean sweep to improve to 11-2 this season.
The win capped off a special day for the Lakers who commemorated the 2023 FLCC men's volleyball team who claimed the inaugural NJCAA Men's Volleyball National Invitational Championship. The ceremony included the return of Jonah Grbic, 2023 NJCAA Most Valuable Player, who transferred to Roberts Wesleyan University following his sophomore season at FLCC. Former head coach Andrew Solomon, who earned 2023 NJCAA Coach of the Year honors, returned to the Putt Moore Court to celebrate the Lakers' historic season.
In the match, freshman Evan Lukasiewicz (Webster, N.Y./Webster) emerged as one of the Lakers' top offensive threats, delivering 14 kills and a hitting efficiency of .458, amassing 15.5 kills. Following not too far behind was sophomore Daniel Seymour (Bellmore, N.Y./John F. Kennedy) who added 8 kills on an impressive .462 hitting percentage. Seymour shined on defense, adding 3 block assists to his tally for a total of 9.5 points in the match.
The orchestrations of the Lakers' attack was handled by sophomore setter Bryce Ceravolo (Canandaigua, N.Y./Canandaigua) who dished out 37 assists and added 4 points through his service and blocking efforts. Ceravolo's consistent play early in the season has been instrumental to the Lakers' dynamic and consistent offensive attack. Classmate Nick Ferris (Canandaigua, N.Y./Canandaigua) took advantage of Ceravolo's consistency, adding 7 kills to his total in the match; bringing 8.5 points to the Lakers tally. Sophomore Ian Meeks (Victor, N.Y./Victor) rounded out the day for the team, contributing 3 aces in a strong day at the service line.
Up next for the Lakers is a doubleheader at the College of DuPage against Bryant & Stratton - Wisconsin and St. Xavier University on Saturday, February 17th at 4 PM and 6 PM CST. Livestream information will be made available in the coming days.
