DONALDSON, IN – The Ancilla College Volleyball program recorded five players named to the 2014 MCCAA All-Conference team.

Sophomore Suzanne Grimm represents the Lady Chargers on the Second Team All-Conference list. Grimm lead the team this season in assists with 665 and aces with 47. She was also second on the team in block assists with 46, third on the team in digs with 427 and fourth in kills recording 206 for her sophomore season.

Present on the Honorable Mention All-Conference list were a trio of sophomores with Mariah Kinney, Amber Redinger and Mackenzie White all receiving recognition.

She also posted 95 digs and 396 kills, which placed her behind Kinney for second in the team’s kills ranks. White lead the defense with 729 digs and was the teams’ top serve receiver having 702 in the 2014 season. Lone freshman, Sophia Smith, rounds out the honorable mention team for the Lady Chargers. Smith placed third on the team in kills with 260, third on the team in assists with 196, second on the team in digs with 453 and was the team’s highest percentage server.

Head coach Lana Singleton is pleased with the number of her girls who filled the All-Conference teams, but sad to look ahead to next year’s season without her sophomores, “I am so pleased that we had five Lady Chargers recognized in conference voting. All five young ladies played in all 153 sets we played this season. They have worked hard and deserve this honor. My sophomores have displayed great leadership and helped build a better program. I will miss them deeply next season.”
