Volleyball Continues Academic Success
3.87 GPA among nation's elite
After posting a grade point average of 3.87, the Colby Community College volleyball team earned the 2023 United States Marine Corps (USMC)/American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Team Academic Award. The honor highlights collegiate and high school volleyball teams with a minimum 3.3 cumulative GPA.
It marks the tenth time in 14 years one of Coach Carey Jones's teams earned the recognition. In addition, the squad was one of six two-year schools nationally to make the AVCA Team Academic Honor Roll, a distinction reserved for the top 20% of team GPAs in divisions I, II, III, and California community colleges.
Additional information on the award is available on the AVCA website.
The 2023 Trojans are arriving in late July to prepare for their Aug. 18-19 tournament games in Beatrice, Neb. The first home contest is Sep. 2 in a Jayhawk Conference contest with Cloud County Community College.
