Irvine, Calif. – UC Irvine's Carson Clark was named to the Off the Block Preseason All-American Team which recognizes the Division I-II men's volleyball players projected to be the best in the nation during the upcoming season.
Senior Carson Clark was one of 10 players selected as Preseason First-Team All-Americans, while setter Daniel Stork, middle blocker Scott Kevorken and newcomer Kevin Tillie received votes. Clark was second in the voting.
