Wheeling earned four spots on the Mountain East Conference volleyball honors list ahead of the conference tournament. Senior Katie Wilking and sophomore Camryn Matus made the All-MEC first team, sophomore Mara McDougal received honorable mention, and freshman Ava Green was named to the All-Freshman team. The No. 2-seeded Cardinals open tournament play against Charleston on Wednesday.

By the Numbers
  • Matus: 251 kills, 342 assists and 9 double-doubles.
  • Wilking: 170 kills, 70 blocks and a .328 hitting percentage.
  • McDougal: 475 digs and 21 service aces.
  • Green: 147 kills; she recorded double-digit kills in 5 of the team’s last 7 matches.
  • Wheeling’s quarterfinal against Charleston is set for Wednesday, Nov. 11, at 11:30 a.m.
Yes, But

Matus’ season was disrupted by injury, requiring her to take on a dual role. She still led Wheeling in kills and double-doubles, while Wilking’s .328 hitting percentage ranked second in the conference.

Bottom Line

Wheeling enters the tournament with recognition spread across its offense, defense and front line—and four honorees who will be central to its postseason hopes.
