COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (July 3, 2025) – The U.S. Men’s Sitting National Team is in Assen, Netherlands, this week for the 2025 Dutch Tournament, taking place July 4-6.
With qualification secured for the Los Angeles 2028 Paralympic Games, the U.S. Men are using every opportunity to gain valuable international experience and build team depth ahead. Last year, the team won silver at the Dutch Tournament, losing to Germany in the final.
Head coach Greg Walker is bringing nearly the same roster that finished second at the 2025 Para Pan America Zonal Championship in May. The U.S. Men, who are the highest ranked team at this year’s Dutch tournament, will face a talented international field including host the Netherlands, Japan and Türkiye in its pool. Canada, Estonia, Poland and Italy are in the other pool.
Six sitting volleyball Paralympians are on the 14-person roster, including two-time Paralympian Eric Duda (outside hitter). Ben Aman (outside), Rod Green (middle), James Stuck (outside), John Kremer (setter) and Dan Regan (outside) all competed at the 2016 Paralympics.
The remaining eight players include libero Nick Dadgostar, who has been competing with the team since 2017; opposite Zach Upp, one of the team’s top players since 2018; outside hitter Sam Surowiec; and rising stars opposite/outside hitter Alex Wilson, outside hitters Robbie Onusko, Jason Roberts and Brett Parks, and setter/libero Will Curtis.
