Sophomore Ian Capp gained national recognition when he made a spectacular play in a game against Marymount University.
The play started with right side Dylan Flor getting blocked and middle hitter Shayron Taylor digging it. The ball then went to the back of the court where Jake Milnazik got a good touch and Capp finished it off with a kick save that ended over the net for a point.
“I used to play soccer back in high school so I had some confidence in my ability to keep it in play,” Capp said. “Never did I think it would actually get a point.”
Immediately after the game, the video was already going viral and it ended up on the night-time edition of SportsCenter’s Top 10 plays on ESPN.
“I was in my room at 1:30 in the morning and Jake Milnazik woke me up and told me the play was on the SportsCenter Top 10,” Capp said.
The video was viewed all over the world and it has been posted to many Twitter and Instagram accounts. Being on ESPN is every athlete’s dream and is something that Capp will never forget.
“I always dreamed of making it on the Top 10 and now I can say I completed a small life goal in the respect,” Capp said.
Capp and the Cougars are having a season full of success. They are currently 7-2 on the season and look to continue it as conference play begins.
