LEXINGTON, Ky. — Texas State senior setter Emily DeWalt became the first student-athlete in program history to be named a Division I American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) All-American when the organization announced its Fall 2021 honorees Wednesday morning.
"To be the first student-athlete in school history to be named AVCA All-American is such a huge honor (for Emily), then you look at the hurdles she had to overcome this season and it just speaks volumes about Emily, not just as a student-athlete but as a young woman," Texas State volleyball head coach Sean Huiet said.
