Volleyball Earns AVCA Team Academic Award For Fourth Straight Year
"Our athletes take great pride in their commitment to their studies as much as their commitment to volleyball," said Head Coach Robin Sparks. "I don't believe you can expect excellence in only one part of your life; it must be a full-time job. Consequently, I am very proud of our team for its dedication to being complete student-athletes."
