Titans Nab Duo From Mukwonago High School (1-4-11)
The UW-Oshkosh men's volleyball team picked up a pair of quality players from Mukwonago High School as 6-2 setter Sean Murphy and 6-5 middle blocker Brandon Wagner both have decided to continue their volleyball and academic careers in a Titans uniform.
The duo will join fellow 2011-2012 recruits Mitchell Lahmann and Tyler Wiedenhoeft as incoming freshmen in the fall.
Murphy, a team captain for three seasons under head coach Rich Glatzcak was named to the Classic 8 Conference honorable mention squad this past season after earning varsity letters his junior and senior campaign.
He is currently playing for Next Level Volleyball Club after participating for Lake Country Volleyball Club his junior year of high school.
Sean is the son of Scott and Jane Murphy and is currently undecided on an intended major. "I selected UW-Oshkosh because it has a lot of different majors to choose from and it has a great volleyball program," Murphy said when asked when he decided on UW-Oshkosh.
Wagner had a breakout season his senior campaign when he was named a WIAA all-state honorable mention selection after being named to the Classic 8 Conference first-team. Wagner was also first team all-conference his junior season.
Wagner has also participated in basketball and track and field at Mukwonago High School. Brandon is the son of Bob and Colleen Wagner and he intends on pursuing education as a major at UW-Oshkosh.
He is a member of the West Allis Lightning Volleyball Club, a premier club in the state after playing for Lake Country Volleyball Club his junior year.
"I choose UW-Oshkosh because it is a good school that is very strong in my major," said Wagner. "They have a great volleyball tradition and I look forward to being a part of the team."
"Both Sean and Brandon attended our volleyball camp last summer and I knew that our success sparked their interest in becoming a Titan," said Schaefer. "They had the opportunity to work with my assistant coach Jason Wheelock and members of our team and they both have unlimited potential. I am excited to see how good they can become playing around other great volleyball players."
