Stefan Boermans

They took a ninth, not the first Dutch team, not the first Dutch wildcard to have some troubles in Hermosa.

Uh, two years ago, Leon Luini and Ruben Penninga, they barbecued out, uh, losing to, uh, Pete Connell and Steve Roschitz and Jeff Samuels and Diego Perez, and they were like, "Man, there's good Americans everywhere." Yes, there are, and that's exactly what Stefan Boermans said, too, as he and Cam Schoch also took a ninth, I believe.

Um, seems like a pretty good split to get to the men's side.

Yeah, Stefan and Cam, were, they took a ninth, and Stefan's like, "Dude, there's just so many good Americans." When I used to write for Volleyball Magazine, and I would do previews for Manhattan and Hermosa and the AVPs, I would call them the CBVA All-Stars, where you just get these dudes who can just beat anyone.

James Shaw trying out another new partner in Wyatt Harrison.

You have all the, all the big dogs on the men's side, and then you have incoming Stefan Boermans, he's gonna play with Kame Shok.

Alejandro Huerta, he's gonna play with Charlie Saragusa.

You got Leon Luini, he's gonna play with Shaun Cook.
