Stanford Adds Five Ahead of 2027 Season

The five signees will join the 2026 national champions in the fall

STANFORD, Calif. — Fresh off a 2026 national championship, Stanford head coach Thom Glielmi announced the addition of five new signees ahead of the 2027 campaign. 

The group of Nartey Brady, Carter Daniel, Kiefer Hong, Maksim Kan, and Justin Park will arrive on The Farm this fall, bringing a wealth of national and international competition experience.
