Gravelle, Lancers add recruit Anthony DeGirolamo for 2017-18

James Gravelle, head coach of the Windsor Lancer Men’s Volleyball program has announced the commitment of recruit Anthony DeGirolamo for the 2017-18 season.

A talented setter, DeGirolamo joins the Blue & Gold from the Aurora Storm and Sir William Mulock Secondary School in Newmarket, Ont.

Currently a member of the 2016 Team Ontario 17U provincial team, DeGirolamo has seen tremendous success with his club and provincial teams. In 2014 alone, he was a 14U provincial champion, captured a national silver medal, and a silver medal at the provincial beach championships.

He also captured a national bronze medal with the 15U Team Ontario squad and was the 2015 YRAA Jr volleyball champion.

Gravelle believes DeGirolamo will be an asset to the Blue & Gold in the season to come. “We are very pleased to welcome Anthony to our team. Anthony is an exceptional young man of great character, work ethic, and has a great volleyball IQ,” said Gracelle. “He has loads of potential and continues to show consistent growth as a setter. He is a high achiever in the classroom and will be an asset to our program and our school.”

DeGirolamo is thrilled to be joining the Blue & Gold, and thinks the University of Windsor is a perfect match for him, “Windsor is a great fit for me both academically and for volleyball. I am really excited and honoured to be a part of the program.”

Anthony will be studying in the Faculty of Engineering here at the University of Windsor next fall.
