(2017 preview)

Goldey-Beacom volleyball coach Bob Trinsey recently was interviewed to discuss his squad's upcoming season. That can be viewed by clicking here.

Goldey-Beacom (11-15, 6-13 CACC) a season ago had a solid mix of experienced and youthful players in being declared the NCAA Division II statistical champion for aces per set with 2.4. The Lightning also recorded a four-win improvement in both their overall and conference records.

A key player back is junior setter Olivia Florence (Glen Allen, VA), who has been a great catalyst and leader for the offense. Looking to join Przywara with some league accolades, Florence a season ago ended 33rd in the nation with 0.46 aces per set, 88th with 41 aces, 96th with 9.64 assists per set and fifth in the CACC with 858 assists.

Back for a third year on the front line is senior Jada Canteen (Newark, DE), who has been a valuable attacker at both middle hitter and the right side. She closed last season 16th in the CACC with a .221 hitting percentage, 28th with seven block solos, 34th with 1.77 kills per set, 39th with 156 kills, 41st with 33 total blocks and 44th with 26 block assists.

Goldey-Beacom opens its season Friday against Salem International, part of Ramfest in West Chester, PA.
