Congrats to all! Some very, very deserving players on this list. Plummer earned her title and big congrats to McLaughlin for helping OSU become a scarily good team.
Now onto a small rant: What this list is telling me is that, out of all of these fantastic teams that gave each other hell night in and night out, we recognize ONE libero to their successes? Hentz, hands down, is the winner of Best Libero but no Honorable Mention to any others?
Yes, Scambray is on the list... but she spent over two weeks in her former position as an OH in the middle of the season. To her credit, she saved Washington's serve receive when she returned to the L position but to disregard Muno, who is probably the 2nd to the incredible Hentz is sad to me. And then to overlook Harker is a bit blind to me too.
Every list is flawed, I just wish the ones in volleyball didn't come at the expense of the foundation of a team: the libero.

anybody else notice that The Entire starting "ro" won a version of the All-conference awards? I also want to reiterate some shine/ kudos to the Frosh DS's/servers this year!

Cal and Arizona both had no players recognIed as all conference, HM or freshman. Has that happened before? They spread the love.
Ironically, 0-20 ASU got Okaro. But she is a heck of a player.

Cool. Was hoping for more for Alade, but that honorable mention list is some pretty good company. I have a feeling that some coaches just couldn't vote for 6 players from the same team. Five was already a lot (unprecedented?). But I can't remember a year when a team dominated the P12 by such a wide margin.

Wish Scambray would've made more than HM. I salute her for being the team player and having to put back on the OH hat when her team was struggling. Only two liberos were honored, Hentz and Scambray, although I'm sure Tia probably got some bonus points for her serving and play at OH. Too bad Muno was not honored as well.

Yeah I thought that was curious as well. Interesting that Cal, despite winning 4 matches, only won 13 sets in conference. All of their losses were sweeps except for a 4-setter vs. USC. ASU, meanwhile, managed the unlikely feat of going 0-20 despite winning 15 sets. SMH

Completely agree

Congrats to all this girls who played hard this year, it was no surprise about Plummer and Hentz. I am happy for Mcclure I believe she will keep getting better and I can't wait to see her next year.
I really hope Plummer can get the NPOY..

I expect 2 from UCLA to make all pac 12. disappointed for Sponcil but thrilled for Gates. IF Stone is on the list then Gates should certainly belong there. She has about 50 more kills than Stone while playing in fewer sets. More than 100 kill attempts but hit at a higher percentage with 6 fewer total errors than Stone. Gates' blocking stat is also slightly better
Obviously I would prefer Gates and Sponcil on the all conference team cos I dont think a sub .200 hitter belong there

I really think that Plummer is one of the 3 frontrunners for the NPOY. Hope she makes history and win it on her Sophomore season! Someone from the Big will get POY because always.
