Elmira College Athletics

Michael Vellutato '14 played a pivotal role in launching Elmira College men's volleyball into national prominence during his four-year career. A dynamic setter, Vellutato remains the program's all-time leader in assists (4,953) and is the only player in program history to record more than 1,400 assists in a single season, a feat he accomplished in 2012.

A four-time All-UVC selection and 2014 AVCA First-Team All-American, Vellutato helped guide the Soaring Eagles to national rankings and earned UVC Player of the Year honors as a senior. That season, Elmira reached No. 10 in the final AVCA national poll.
