For the second straight season, the Lancaster Bible men's volleyball has reached the North Eastern Athletic Conference and unlike last season, the team hopes its season won't end in disappointment. The Chargers dropped last season's NEAC Final to Keuka, 3-1 at Horst Athletic Center.
After running the table in the regular season in 2013, the Chargers were forced to win their final two regular season matches in 2014, which is exactly what they did last Saturday when they defeated Wells and Keuka. The Chargers have been led all season long by their two seniors,
Alex Bahn and
Mitch Demko. Both players earned spots on the NEAC All-Conference First Team as Bahn led the conference in kills with 300, while Demko was second with 267.
Below is a quick statistical preview of Saturday's NEAC Final that pits the Chargers against top-seeded SUNYIT. The match is scheduled to begin at 4 p.m. in Utica, N.Y.
