The sound of applause echoed off the gym walls. Whistles rang through the crowd. The RAC gym erupted in standing ovation for one man. All eyes were fixated on the George Mason men’s volleyball senior leader and captain, Joe Norton as he celebrated his last home game in green and gold.

However, all of the festivities were an afterthought as the Patriots (12-16, 7-6 EIVA) fell to their Eastern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association rivals, Princeton, 3-2 on Saturday afternoon.
