The Midwest Athletic Conference has chosen LC freshman outside
hitter Alexis Nelson for first-team recognition. Nelson, a graduate
of Bloom High School in Chicago Heights, was also selected as the
MWAC Co-Freshman of the Year. The conference also gave honorable
mention recognition to Lincoln's sophomore setter Emily Fox of
Springfield and to sophomore libero Markeshia Williams, a graduate
of East St. Louis High School.
When the all-region teams for NJCAA Region 24 were announced,
Nelson was again chosen for first-team recognition. She was one of
only three freshmen in the region to make the eight-member first
team. Nelson's 389 kills and 50 percent hitting efficiency rating
for the Lady Lynx this season ranked her No. 5 in the nation among
Division II NJCAA hitters.
Fox, the team’s assist leader with over 600 total assists for the
year, was awarded all-region honorable mention status. All-region
honorable mention recognition was also given to freshman middle
hitter Chelsea Rhoades. Rhoades, a graduate of Rushville High
School, led LC in blocks with 141 and was second in kills with 189.
