PRINCETON, N.J. – The Princeton men's volleyball team will head to New York this week to open up the 2023 season on the road with two, back-to-back matches.
The Tigers will begin the '23 campaign on Monday at 7 p.m. in Buffalo N.Y., for a match against D'Youville, and the following day will travel to Amherst, N.Y. for a 7 p.m. match with Daemon. The team begins this season equipped with a roster made up of fresh talent and experienced returners.
The defending Eastern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association Champions (EIVA) welcome back ten upperclassmen this season, including senior Nate Thompson. Thompson was a 2022 All-EIVA honorable mention selection and ranked second on the team in points per set (3.22).
Junior, Ben Harrington, another key returner for the Tigers, enters the year coming off of an impressive 2022 campaign that included accolades such as EIVA Tournament Most Outstanding Player, All-EIVA First Team selection, and EIVA Newcomer of the Year.
Additionally, the Tigers return four sophomores and welcome seven first years. In 2022, sophomore Henry Wedbush ranked second on the team in assists, with 403, and assists per set, with 5.84. Wedbush was also recently named a 2023 EIVA player to watch this season for Princeton.
Head coach, Sam Shweisky, who enters his 14th season at Princeton, will continue to lead the Tigers in 2023. Last season, Shweisky led the Tigers to their second-straight EIVA title and helped Princeton to make an appearance in the 2022 NCAA Tournament.
Following Tuesdays' match, the Tigers will continue their travels into the weekend and head out west for a trio of matches in California.
Out west, Princeton is set to take on UCLA on Saturday, January 14th ( 6:00 PM PT/ 9:00 PM ET), then on Monday January 16th face Pepperdine (7:00 PM PT/10:00 PM ET), and will finish out the California trip against Concordia on Wednesday, January 18th (5:00 PM PT/8:00 PM ET).
