Hornet Women Named All League

Written by Ken Chu | 08 March 2010

The 2010 NCCVL season has come to a close with only the Las Vegas Open and the NCVF National Championship Tournament left on the schedule.

The NCCVL Championship match had the leagues top 2 teams competing.  #1 seed Cal Poly vs #2 seed Santa Clara.  Even more impressive and attesting to the strength of NCCVL volleyball, both these teams are also ranked in the top 4 nationally with #2 Cal Poly and #4 Santa Clara.  The match lived up to that high powered billing as Santa Clara defeated Cal Poly 3-2 (19-25, 16-25, 25-23, 25-23, 15-13) to take their 4th straight league championship.

During the championship weekend, the 2010 NCCVL Women's Division I All League teams were also announced.  The two Hornets named to the All League teams were Karlynn Only and Julie Coelho.  Karlynn, who is serving as club president this year, was named to the Second All League team as a Middle Blocker.  Julie, was named Honorable Mention Outside Hitter.  All League selections were voted on by coaches from each league team from nominations made throughout the year.
