Latest grand moment for star volleyball player is biggest of his career
This is why Dylan Missry went to UCLA, to play on the biggest stage and win a national championship.
This weekend the Sachem North alum will get an opportunity to add to his illustrious volleyball resume when his Bruins compete in the NCAA Division I men’s volleyball championship.
The Bruins will take on top-ranked Long Beach State at 4 p.m. PST at Pauley Pavillion, a home match for UCLA. They upset No. 2 BYU in the semifinals.
Missry was Long Island Player of the Year when he guided Sachem to its first New York State volleyball championship in 2014. He was All-American, All-State, All-Long Island, All-County and All-League and has left a lasting impact on the Flaming Arrows program, which continues to dominate today.
