LEXINGTON, Ky. – Stevens' men's volleyball outside hitter Koby Sherman was named Region III All-Region by the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA), as announced by the organization.
Sherman and the Ducks won a fourth straight Middle Atlantic Conference (MAC) Tournament Championship last Saturday, and will seek a second National Championship in three seasons starting this weekend.
Sherman enters NCAA's with 283 kills in 76 sets for the season to go along with 63 digs and 48 total blocks. The senior's attack percentage currently stands at .342, which would be a career best if it holds. The Sunnyvale, Calif. native notched 15 or more kills in seven contests, averaging 19.5 kills against MAC Tournament teams Stevenson and Messiah. Sherman averaged at least four kills per set in 11 games, including a 22-kill performance in a four-set win over the conference's No. 2 seeded Falcons during the regular season. Sherman also added Middle Atlantic Conference Most Outstanding Player honors after totaling 36 kills against Stevenson and Messiah in the MAC Semifinal and Final, respectively.
Up Next: Following the MAC four-peat, the Ducks will host a five-team pod at Canavan Arena for the NCAA Men's Volleyball Championship, beginning this week. Stevens will take on the winner of Randolph-Macon and Nichols on Friday. The winner of that Friday match will face the winner of Juniata and Wentworth in the quarterfinal round on Saturday. During the regular season, Stevens swept Nichols, swept Randolph-Macon, defeated Wentworth in four sets, and lost to Juniata in three sets.
