Three Kansas Wesleyan Volleyball players have been named to the All-KCAC team as the team was announced on Saturday at the KCAC Tournament Championship match in Hillsboro.

Griffeth

“All these players are very deserving of the honors given to them,” KWU coach Gordon Reimer said.

Kristal Griffeth earned First Team All-KCAC honors for the second straight season. Griffeth, a 6-0 junior middle blocker from Beatrice, Neb., averaged 2.66 kills and 1.11 blocks per game, to be ranked ninth and sixth respectively in those categories.

Kometani

Doris Kometani was named Second Team All-KCAC in addition to being named KCAC Freshman of the Year. Kometani, a 5-7 setter from Kaneohe, Hawaii, played in all 99 games for the Coyotes this season, and averaged 9.41 assists per game, good enough for third in the conference. She was also tenth in the KCAC in aces at .45 per game.

Berg

Outside Hitter Kelli Berg was also named Second Team All-KCAC. Berg, a 5-9 junior from Logan, Kan., played in 92 games for the Coyotes this season, and was fourth in the KCAC in kills per game at 2.86 kills per game, and third in the KCAC in aces at .55 per game.

“The fact these three were voted All-KCAC exemplifies the hard work they have put in during the season. All of our players worked extremely hard and will continue to work hard during the off-season so that we can come back and compete for the KCAC Championship next season,” Reimer said.
