2023 NCAA Division II The Season: Belmont Abbey

 


With two time NCAA Division II All American Mitch Dean (21'6th & 22'4th) now gone, it'll be up to some of the other Crusaders to step it up a notch as Belmont Abbey heads into the 22'-23' season. 

133 lbs
Ben Fielding 

After qualifying for the NCAA DII championships as a freshman in 2021, Ben Fielding missed out on a second qualification last season when he finished 5th at the Super Region II. The Ohio native will look to earn that second qualification this season. 

141 lbs
John Carayiannis   OR         Skyler Caban 

John Carayiannis returns the sole returning All American from last season after an 8th place finish at the NCAA Division II championships.  The junior posted a 13-9 record last season.  Also at 141 lbs is tough backup Skyler Caban. The Florida native posted a 10-3 record. 

174 lbs
Connor Weeks 

The Georgia native had a very impressive Super Region II showing last year making the finals & qualifying for the NCAA Division II championships. 

184 lbs
Mason Kump 

Despite having a losing record last season, Mason Kump turned it on strong at the Super Region II & nearly qualified for the NCAA Division II championships when he finished in 4th place.

Justin Wright 

The junior from New Jersey came within one match of qualifying for the NCAA Division II championships last season when he finished 4th at the Super Region II.
