Scouting Report

ACAD Boys 17-Orange is a 17U boys volleyball team from Academy Volleyball of Long Island, competing in the 2025-2026 season on the East Coast Power League (GE) circuit. They feature a roster of 2027 and 2028 graduates with modest heights, led by tallest players at 6'2" middle blocker Jack Undorf and 6'1" MH Michael Grolnick. The team has participated in regional tournaments including Atlantic City Invitational, Nike Steel City Championships, and is scheduled for Boys East Coast Championships in May 2026, establishing them as an active developmental program.

Competitive Level: Strong regional program

Strengths:

Team has multiple outside hitters at 5'10" for balanced perimeter attacks.
Two middle blockers over 6'0" provide height advantage at the net.
Depth in liberos/defensive specialists supports strong back row defense.
Versatile players like #21 who can fill multiple roles including setter and opposite.

Areas for Improvement:

Overall roster heights are modest, peaking at 6'2" with many players 5'9"-5'10".
Limited setter depth beyond primary Ryan Velten and versatile #21.
Reliance on shorter athletes may struggle against taller blocking teams.
