Silas Vanderstoep '26 Recruiting Profile

Volleyball is an incredible physical sport, but what truly captivates me is the critical thinking involved. It’s a delicate balance between playing hard and playing smart. I love the strategic aspect of placing the ball in the right spots, reading the defense, and making adjustments to my hit or pass. All of this must be done within seconds, keeping me on my toes and constantly ready for anything. That’s why I love volleyball so much. I want to pursue it to the D1 level, where I can compete with the some of the most strategic players on the court..
