2018 Las Vegas Boys Volleyball Capsule
LAS VEGAS
Head coach: Justin Graham, fourth season
2017 record: 22-9 (8-0 Northeast/first)
Returning lettermen (starters): Six (one)
Top players: S/OPP Shaun Kampshoff (Sr.), OH Jorge Hernandez (Sr.), MH/OH Rodolfo Boteo (Sr.)
Outlook: Kampshoff (515 assists, 351 kills, 214 digs, 51 blocks, 20 aces) was one of the most well-rounded weapons in the state last year and was a first-team all-state selection.
But he’s the only returning starter for the defending Sunrise Region champions.
Hernandez (25 kills, 26 digs) and Boteo (12 kills) are among those who will see increased playing time and hope to have success.
“The Wildcats will be looking to a lot of new faces to try and defend last year’s Sunrise Region championship,” Graham said. “With only one returning starter and two returning backups, we have a lot of work ahead of us to try and compete with the best teams in the city again this May, but this group is hungry for that challenge.”
