For the second straight season, Arizona volleyball has one of the best freshmen in the Pac-12. First-year opposite Puk Stubbe was named to the Pac-12 All-Freshman team on Monday. Last season, outside hitter Sofia Maldonado Diaz was the Pac-12 Freshman of the Year.
In addition to Stubbe’s honor, both Maldonado Diaz and junior libero Kamaile Hiapo were named All-Pac-12 honorable mention.
Stubbe was a late addition to the Wildcats’ roster, arriving in Tucson just weeks before the season started. The former member of the Dutch national beach volleyball team immediately stepped into a starting role for Arizona.
