SPARTANS ANNOUNCE SIGNING OF PIERS DE GREEFF

COACH ADAM SCHRIEMER

“We could not be more excited about Piers’ commitment to our program. Piers brings a unique combination of size and skill. He comes from a beach volleyball background, so his touch and ball skills are elite. As he has gotten older, he has gotten a lot more physical which has allowed him to play a lot higher above the net. Piers has always been one of the top prospects in the province, but as he trained with the National Excellence Program this fall it became clear he is one of the top prospects in the country. 

“Not only is Piers an amazing player, he is amazing person too. He values our culture and what it means to be a Spartan. He is exactly the type of person we are looking for and we can’t wait for Piers to join our team next season.”

“I chose TWU because of the amazing culture, which will give me the opportunity to grow not only as a volleyball player, but as a Christian as well. I am super excited to learn from and compete with some of the best volleyball players in the country.” 

COACH ADAM SCHRIEMER

“We are so excited to receive Zach’s commitment to our program. Zach comes to us from a volleyball family and we love having athletes like Zach who grew up playing volleyball. With Zach’s parents working in our department and brothers Brodie and Tyson playing on the team, it has felt like Zach has always been part of our Spartan family. We are now thrilled to officially welcome Zach to our program.

“As an outside hitter Zach can spike with incredible range. Being still in Grade 11, it’s not common to see a player score in as many ways as he does. He has an incredible toolbox as spiker, which helps him score in many different ways. Zach also stands out as a server. He has a unique hybrid serve that causes trouble through either max velocity or change of pace variations. Zach’s serve and spiking is well beyond his years.”

“Trinity is my home and the Spartans are my family. I can’t wait to join the program and become a Spartan on the court.”
