It's a Wrap. Division II Post Season Honors and Numbers
As uniforms are laundered for the last time, players are recognized for their season's work. And the morphing list of statistical leaders stops to become the historical record. Here are the results.
There were 262 Missouri and Kansas high school grads who chose to pursue their love of volleyball at the NCAA Division II level. Of those, 75 are recognized here for finishing in a conference or national statistical Top Ten or for having been named to a post seaston award. They made their presence known in warm places in Florida like Flagler College, West Florida, Eckard College, Florida Southern, and Florida Tech. And places like Alaska-Fairbanks where they don’t have to differentiate between indoor and beach volleyball.
