Six Dons Earn WCC All-Academic Honors

SAN MATEO, Calif. – The West Coast Conference announced their annual All-Academic teams for the 2022 volleyball season on Tuesday afternoon.

For San Francisco, Aylen Ayub and Orsula Staka earned First Team honors while Letizia Aquilino, Sara Denham, Lauren Perri and Shyia Richardson were all awarded Honorable Mention honors.

The following criteria was used to select the 2022 honorees:

A minimum 3.20 cumulative grade point average (GPA) based on the most recently completed term at the time of the nomination. For soccer, this would apply to the 2022 spring term
Be a starter or important reserve with legitimate athletic credentials
Have at least sophomore athletic and academic standing with at least one year in residence completed at the nominating institution (true freshmen, redshirt freshmen and ineligible athletic transfers could not be nominated)
Participate in at least 50 percent of the institution's completed contests

The maximum number of individuals selected to the specific sport's All-Academic team is similar to the number of student-athletes selected to the specific sport's all-conference team.
