John Volker is one of the fastest players in New Jersey and he’s bringing that blazing speed to the Ivy League and Princeton. Volker has given a verbal commitment to the admissions process with the Tigers. John will follow in the footsteps of younger brother Charlie who had a successful four-year career at Princeton from 2015-18:

I want to thank the Princeton coaching staff for giving me the opportunity to play at the next level. I would also like to thank those in Rumson and Fair Haven who have guided me along the way. That being said, I’m committing to the admissions process at Princeton University! 🐅 pic.twitter.com/Z8XXRlDK1B — John Volker (@JohnVolker3) August 6, 2020

Volker was able to put together an impressive junior season with over 1,000 all-purpose yards and nine touchdowns despite playing the second half of the year with a broken bone in his foot. Jersey Sports Zone profiled Volker earlier this summer in our A to Z Series of players we’re most excited to see in 2020:
