VBelo Daily: March 04, 2025
Today is all about first year programs. Barry had an impressive win over North Greenville and I had the opportunity to talk with LeMoyne-Owen's head coach and a few players. The future looks bright!
Well this is sad.
I had this email all ready to go, and apparently I forgot to schedule it.
I guess it is better late than never.
I had the privilege of talking with one of the newest programs in NCAA Men’s Volleyball: LeMoyne-Owen. Head Coach Tyrell Jamison, along with three players (Daryl McClain, Alendy Sincoul, and Jacqson Lesure) spoke of the culture of this new program, the challenges they have faced, and their hopes for winning the SIAC. And yes, Memphis BBQ came up.
One of the best ways of growing the game of men’s volleyball is supporting new teams. If you want to learn more about LeMoyne-Owen, this is a great look into a brand new program. Ooh yeah, they are also 2-0 to start conference play in the SIAC. They may be new, but they will put up a fight every single match.
