Carmel coach Kevin Nylen: “Huge come from behind win against a very good Warren team. Huge props to all our guys, but especially the guys who aren’t going to make the stat sheets like our middle hitters Carter Esteban, Zach Marcheschi and Will Niese. They work so hard from pin to pin to make our offense run. Ptasienski and Herron continue to impress offensively and the setters Durnil and Szamocki are running the offense so well. And the passing of defensive specialist Keelen Douglas and passing and digs from libero Ryan Hogan were fantastic.”
