Expectations:
The Highlanders are looking to make it back to the Nassau County playoffs and make a deeper run than they did last season when they lost to Syosset, 3-0 in the quarterfinals.
"We are definitely looking to get further than we did last season," Weinberg said. "We bring back some good players and our expectations are high."
With Kim and Yoon, the Highlanders have a very real chance of getting to the County finals. Josh Kim also returns at the Libero position and Kevin Ko is a first year varsity player who will be expected to contribute in every match.
