What training was most successful to develop this skill for each of you, and what goes through your head between reception and attack? 22:46 What was the mindset that’s instilled in you all that separates you guys from other volleyball family’s? How come all of you are so successful but other brothers/sisters aren’t, can you distill what that is? 26:28 What was it like playing with your brother(s)? Was there a different dynamic in your “family” or “teammate” relationship? 32:43 My highschool team is struggling to find a groove and win games. We are all pretty decent individually and have good team chemistry but we find ourselves in ruts where we can’t pass, set or hit well against teams that are definitely not as good as we are. I was wondering if any of you guys can relate or if you guys had advice for getting out of situations like these. 37:13 What is the driving force to keep playing? The love of the game? The grind? The money/monetary benefits? The awards? Because it’s what you know? 41:25 Mathias, would you like to play in Polish PlusLiga? Have you had any offers from this league so far? 42:12 Jesse, How do you feel about being such a model and someone we look up to, especially for younger people and the new generation of volleyball players. 44:00 What was it like to play setter and outside. How do you handle the transition and which position do you like playing more? 46:54 Mathias, how are you so good at setting, passing, and hitting. You’re just as a good of a setter as a hitter. I know players that can play 2 positions but NOT at YOUR level. Especially at the national level. How do you do that? 48:08 Considering that all three of you guys were from the same high school, and I think Jackson Howe too. Did y'all destroy teams so easily? And did you guys win provincials? 46:54 Mathias, how are you so good at setting, passing, and hitting. You’re just as a good of a setter as a hitter. I know players that can play 2 positions but NOT at YOUR level. Especially at the national level. How do you do that? 50:13 To me, you guys had the GREATEST college men's volleyball team of all time in the 2021-2022 season. Do you guys think that year you guys were the greatest Mens college volleyball team to ever assemble? And if you guys had one more season together with that team, would you guys win the Canada West Championship, the U Sports Championship, or both? 53:44 Jesse, being that you're 6'9, would you ever play middle?
