Landmark Announces Volleyball All-Conference Team
MADISON, N.J. – A total of 14 student-athletes have been
named to the 2008 All-Landmark Conference Volleyball Team as
selected by the conference’s seven head coaches. The team
consists of a first and second team, with seven players on each
team, and the coaches selected the team by position. The voting for
the All-Conference Team took place after the conclusion of the
regular season and prior to the start of the Landmark
postseason.
Juniata College, which went a perfect 6-0 in conference play during
the season and is currently ranked second in Division III, placed
six players on the All-Conference Team, four of them on the first
team. Juniata senior Amber Thomas was selected as the Landmark
Player of the Year, and junior Megan Sollenberger was picked as the
Specialist of the Year, both for the second time in as many
seasons. Moravian College freshman Katie Moquete (Midland Park,
N.J./Midland Park) was selected as the Landmark Rookie of the Year.
The Susquehanna University coaching staff, led by Head Coach John
Tom, was voted the Coaching Staff of the Year after leading the
Crusaders to a program-record 25 regular-season wins.
