US Men’s Volleyball Team Gears Up for Olympics Qualifiers With a 78 mph “Rocket” From 26YO Player

The US Men’s Volleyball team is preparing itself for the upcoming Olympics to claim the gold medal in Paris. The men’s team recently cruised through the NORCECA Pan American Cup Final Six and claimed an impeccable victory. While the US relies on its solid defense, a recently uploaded social media clip showcased its astonishing offensive capabilities.

The USA volleyball team is currently cruising with immense momentum. The American volleyball team just needs to qualify for the 2024 Olympics to make history. Amidst the preparations for qualifiers, an electrifying video of a lighting-fast spike has stormed the internet. In fact, the insane ball spike traveled so fast that the opposition had no response for it.

The fast and furious volleyball spike

Torey James “TJ” DeFalco is one of the most prominently shining members of the American volleyball team. The 26-year-old is an outside hitter and specializes in highly accurate spikes that zap past his opponents. One of DeFalco’s teammates, Cody Kessel recently uploaded a video of an insanely fast DeFalco spike on his X account. The tweet carried the caption, “TJ DeFalco with an absolute rocket.” The video showed that the ‘rocket’ spike of DeFalco traveled at a staggering speed of 78 miles per hour.

An opponent on the other end of the court tried to receive DeFalco’s vanishingly fast spike. However, despite being in a perfect position, the player couldn’t receive the spike. Instead, it violently bounced off his hands, earning TJ a perfect ace. The team will utilize TJ’s offense for the qualifier match of 30th September 2023. The women’s team has already grabbed their ticket to Paris. While they initially faced a bad loss from Poland, they conquered a must-win match against Germany and qualified for 2024. Along similar lines, the men’s team also recently overcame adversity at the NORCECA Pan American Cup Final Six against arch-rivals Canada.

The staunch victory against Canada at NORCECA Championship

The US men’s volleyball team found themselves in a bad pinch on 22nd September 2023 at NORCECA Pan American Cup Final Six. They were facing their arch-rivals and neighboring nation, Canada, in a highly competitive match. While both teams had fared through their campaigns with zero defeats, the Canadians looked more fierce in the first round. Team US might have drifted to another loss against the Canadians, but a moment of calm helped them focus.
