Quotes from Ambridge coach Glenn Freed: "Justin is one of my hardest worker ever. His off-season conditioning routine and club volleyball competitions have really helped him become one of the strongest setters in the WPIAL. His goal is to win a PIAA championship this year. I am very proud of his commitment and dedication to Ambridge volleyball which has helped the team be one of the top teams in the state. Justin will be truly missed after this season."
