ROWLAND — On the heels of its first undefeated conference record and first conference championship, South Robeson High School hauled in a bevy of hardware when the All-Three Rivers Conference volleyball teams were announced last weekend.
The Lady Mustangs’ Ahlea Dickens was named Player of the Year while head coach Donnie Carter, who led South Robeson to a 15-4 overall record and 10-0 Three Rivers mark, was named Coach of the Year.
Joining Dickens on the Three Rivers’ 11-member first team were teammates Virginiya McCormick and Savanna Hunt.
Other county players receiving first-team nods were Fairmont’s Christa Thorndyke and Brittany Seals, St. Pauls’ Andrea Tyler and Coronda Glover and Red Springs’ Shantana Norris.
Named to the all-conference second team were South Robeson’s Jackie Hunt, Illiyah White-Bennet and Rachel Harris; Fairmont’s Anasia Evans and China Smith; St. Pauls’ Kristen Locklear and Tamara Glover; and Red Springs’ Brenicia McNeill.
South Robeson and Fairmont made the league’s deepest state playoff pushes with exits in the second round. Fairmont finished second in the Three Rivers with an 8-2 record.
