With twelve returning letter-winners, including a trio of starters, and nine talented freshmen, second-year
Head Coach Morgan Mammosser and the Pitt-Johnstown volleyball team have high hopes enter the 2022 season.
Â
After narrowly missing out on a PSAC Tournament berth a year ago, the Mountain Cat will look to returning starters
Katelyn Courtney (SR, Middle Hitter), (1.44 kills/set, 12 solo blocks, 48 block assists, 60 blocks),
Lualis Alvarado (SO, Outside Hitter) (255 kills, 3.07 kills/set, 19 aces, 2.93 digs/set, 23 blocks) and
Adiamar Beaz (SO, Setter) (919 assists, 9.99 assists/set, 45 aces, 308 digs, 3.35 digs/set).
Â
Alvarado ranked ninth in the PSAC in kills (255, 3.07 Kills per set) and points per game (255 kills, 19 service aces), while Beaz finished third in the league in assists (919 assists) and fourth in service aces (45).
Â
The Mountain Cats also welcome back nine others with collegiate playing experience, and nine freshmen that include outside hitter
Natalie Lippincott, a PIAA All-State performer who finished her Bedford High School career with 675 kills, 597 digs, and 158 aces, middle hitter
Mallory Pinske, an Illinois Honorable Mention All-State selection who had 551 kills and 168 career digs, and setter
Isabella Gomez, a three-time Texas 6A Division I All-District choice.
Â
With a blend of experienced returners and talented newcomers, Coach Mammosser and the Mountain Cat volleyball team look to make the 2022 season a successful one and continue to build on the program's previous successes.
Pitt-Johnstown, picked to finish fifth in the PSAC Western Division by the conference's coaches, tip-off the 2022 season at the Fairmont State (WV) Tournament on August 26-27. The Mountain Cats will make their 2022 home debut with a non-conference match against Salem (WV) on September 13 at 6 p.m. in the Sports Center.
