Thank you seniors: All of the players whose college careers ended today

Jonathan Bates | Off the Block Associate Editor

It’s easy to focus on the disappointments that today brought with the suspension of at least three conference’s men’s volleyball seasons and the cancellation of the 2020 NCAA Tournament. It’s also easy to feel upset that your team won’t win the NCAA tournament this year. The coaches will move on eventually, but our heart goes out to the class of 2020 whose senior season was cut short. Below is a list of 136 seniors and graduate students who have toiled for their respective programs. To them, many of them all-conference or even All-Americans, we salute them and thank them for all of the memories. Special thanks to Pepperdine coach David Hunt for the idea to honor the great group of kids who lost out what should have been a special season.
