LEXINGTON, Ky. (Dec. 1) -- UAA senior Calli Scott was recognized among the best NCAA Division II players in the nation when she was named this week to the American Volleyball Coaches' Association honorable-mention All-America squad.
The 5-8 setter from Scottsdale, Ariz. (Pinnacle HS/Glendale College), had previously received All-West Region and Great Northwest Athletic Conference Player-of-the-Year honors after leading the Seawolves to the best season in program history.
Scott averaged a GNAC-best 10.64 assists per set as the Seawolves posted a 23-8 record, a school-record 13-match winning streak, their first league title in 17 years, and their first-ever NCAA Tournament victory. Scott finished her career as UAA's career leader in assists per set (10.62).
She becomes the second Seawolf ever to gain any kind of All-America accolade, joining
former teammate Rhea Cardwell, an outside hitter who earned AVCA Second Team honors
in 2008.
