FAIRFAX, Va. –  The George Mason men's volleyball team will have six newcomers on the club for the 2020 season.
 
20986    Chey Cooper | Chesapeake, Va. | Outside Hitter
 
    Cooper, a four-year letter winner at Indian River High School, earned a plethora     of awards including Tidewater Player of the Year, District Player of the Year,     Regional Player of the Year and a two-time first team all-state selection.
 
    Jay's Quote
 
    "Chey is a high flying outside hitter, who has the potential to be one of the better 'smaller' attackers in the country," head coach Jay Hosack said. "He possesses a keen sense for passing, and can play multiple positions for us."


20996    Merit Monogue | Mukwonago, Wis. | Outside Hitter
 
    Monogue, a two-time letter winner at Mukwonago High School, was recognized     as an all-state honorable mention and a first-team all-conference selection     during his senior season where he recorded 281 kills, 112 digs, 52 total blocks,     and 42 aces.
 
    Jay's Quote
 
"Merit has a powerful arm swing and is able to play both pins for us," Hosack said. "His ability to light up a gym with a big swing or block will prove to be a crowd favorite when he gets on the court for us."
 

20988 Ayrton Garcia-Jurado | Laguna Beach, Calif. | Setter
 
 The 6-foot setter was part of the  2016 National Championship team during his sophomore season.
 
 Jay's Quote
 
 "Ayrton is a calm, cool, and collected setter," Hosack said. "He is very creative  with his set selection and can get our hitters one-on-one opportunities quite often. He plays great defense as well, which is a benefit for that position."
 


20985 Jack Bolz | Park Ridge, Ill. | Opposite
 
 A three-year letter winner at Maine South High School, Bolz was a two-time team captain for the Hawks and a two-time All-Conference selection where he recorded 345 kills, 155 digs, 90 blocks and 48 aces.
 
 Jay's Quote
 
 "Jack is a tall lefty who has a potent arm swing," Hosack stated. "His ability to get in his attackers' airspace when blocking is strong, and he has a keen awareness of where he needs to be to slow people down."

 
20993    Davis Kaderli | Austin, Texas | Libero
 
    Kaderli earned a spot on the All-Conference team and was a member of the     Orange County All-Star game in 2019 during his time at Tesoro High School.
 
    Jay's Quote
 
    "Davis is strong libero for us and is understanding of what it takes to be successful at this level in a position that is new for him," Hosack said. "He will be a force down the road for us as his experience grows."
 


21000    Eamonn Testerman | Mission Viejo, Calif. | Middle Blocker
 
    The 6-foot-8-inch middle blocker was a captain during his senior year for the     Hawks where he was recognized as an All-League first team member. During     his junior year, Testerman was selected to the second team All-League.
 
    Jay's Quote
 
    "Eamonn is strong pick up at the middle position, with his long body frame and his keen sense for blocking," Hosack said. "This is one of the toughest positions to come into college and play right away, but he is learning from some of the best in the game from our upper classmen."
