Quotes from Shaler coach Paul Stadelman: "Dante is an extremely hard worker and takes training and practice seriously. He understands the work he puts in during the off-season and through club volleyball helps better prepare him for his high school volleyball season in a district that is competitive from top to bottom. He takes academics seriously and is reliable, honest, trustworthy, and selfless. He truly sets a great example for teammates, especially the younger players. He is a force to be reckoned with as one of the top middle hitters in the state and I am excited for his senior season and beyond. Truly a pleasure to coach." |
