Quotes from Keystone Oaks coach Michael Mull: "Pat has truly emerged this year as a pure leader to his team. As a freshman, although being goofy, he was a sponge when it came to instruction and learning the game. Now as a senior, still the same goof, he has matured to be an excellent leader/role model to his fellow teammates, and possibly the best libero I've ever coached. I wish Pat nothing but the best in his future, as it's been a pleasure watching him grow on and off the court"
