Matt West will captain the Bengaluru Torpedoes when the Prime Volleyball League begins its fourth season on October 2 in Hyderabad. The 32-year-old setter from Seattle brings a decade of professional experience across nine countries, and he earned multiple league championships in Europe. His mother represented Peru at the 1980 Moscow Olympics in volleyball, while his father also competed professionally.
West emphasized his focus on mentorship rather than personal achievement at this career stage. The team features American attacker Jalen Penrose, and Indian players Sethu TR, Joel Benjamin J, Mujeeb MC, and libero Midhunkumar Balasubramaniyan. Two-time Olympic medalist David Lee coaches the squad. The Torpedoes reached the finals during season two, and they aim to claim the championship this year.
