HAMPTON, VA-Three members of the Elizabeth City State University volleyball team have been named to the 2013 All-CIAA Second and All-Rookie Teams as released by the conference office Tuesday morning.

Kelsey Smith and Krystal Sawyer have been voted to the 2013 All-CIAA Volleyball Second Team while freshman Libero, Grace Barrett, has been named to the 2013 All-Rookie Team.

After being named the preseason team back in August, Kelsey Smith follows up with her first post season All-CIAA honor. She was second on the team in kills and led ECSU in total blocks with 74 on the year. Her block per set average was best in the CIAA at 0.99.
