Vea repeats as first-team all-GNAC

Junior Brandie Vea has been named to the all-GNAC volleyball first team for the second consecutive year, and three others also received recognition on the all-conference squad, released Monday by the conference.

Vea was a first-team all-GNAC pick after leading the conference in digs as a junior. She totaled 601 digs in her 103 sets played for an average of 5.83 per set, marking the second straight season she had 600 digs or more.

Vea established single-season (626) and single-match (50 vs. Sonoma State) school records for digs during her sophomore season in 2008, and earlier this season, set the CWU career record for digs with 1,411 digs.

Also earning all-conference honors from CWU were sophomore setter Carlee Marble, senior right-side hitter Erin Norris and junior Kady Try. Marble was a second-team all-league selection, while Norris and Try were both honorable mention picks.

Calli Scott of Alaska Anchorage was named GNAC Player of the Year, and Seawolves coach Chris Green was named the league’s top coach.

Noel posts fifth hole-in-one

This hole-in-one thing is becoming old hat for Jim Noel of Yakima, whose ace Saturday at Westwood West Golf Course was his fifth.

Noel’s feat came on the 167-yard 11th hole — that would be the second hole for those players accustomed to playing nine — and he used a 5-iron. The ace was witnessed by playing partners Bob Mott and Paul Almeida.Ike, La Salle both at home Saturday
