Five American players - outside hitters Abigail Vander Wal and Emerson Sellman, opposite Abigail Mullen, setter Flynn Campbell and libero Ava Falduto - who earlier this month claimed the 2023 FIVB Volleyball Girls’ U19 World Championship title in Osijek, Croatia are now part of the United States team who are competing at the 2023 FIVB Volleyball Women’s U21 World Championship in the Mexican cities of León and Aguascalientes.
“I am beyond grateful for USA Volleyball and the opportunity to be a part of both teams, it feels amazing, but it has been really challenging to adjust to the higher level of play that the U21 teams have,” reflects Vander Wal.
The tournament is streamed live on the Volleyball World YouTube channel.
