The USC men's volleyball program will celebrate Celso Kalache and Dusty Dvorak, two large pieces of the foundation on which the #1 team in the nation now sits, by hanging their jerseys in the Galen rafters after Saturday's showdown with #2 BYU.
The Trojans will actually take on the Cougars in back-to-back home games Friday and Saturday this week to kick off a six-game homestand. Click here for tickets (Admission is FREE Saturday)!
Kalache, a two-time Olympian for Brazil in 1972 and 1976, was a high-leaping outside hitter whose MVP performance led USC to its first ever first-ever NCAA title in 1977.
Dvorak (pictured right) was the setter on the '77 and '80 championship teams, including taking home MVP honors with his second ring. Four years later, he led the U.S. to Olympic gold in the 1984 games in Los Angeles.
Kalache and Dvorak will join Tim Hovland and Bob Yoder as the four men's volleyball retired jerseys.
The ceremony will take place after the Saturday, March 5, game against #2 BYU at Galen Center. Remember, admission is FREE!

Kalache was hammering away winners long before current star Murphy Troy.
