Prior to the start of final exams, the Kent State volleyball program gathered at the M.A.C. Center this past weekend to celebrate its senior class and successes throughout the 2018-19 academic year.
Head coach Don Gromala provided a recap of the season, beginning with a retreat that included team building activities and a whitewater rafting adventure at the start of camp in August. Freshman Erin Gardner (defensive) and redshirt freshman Alex Haffner (setter) each earned a Mid-American Conference Player of the Week honor during the season. Gardner and Melissa Kolurbasi were selected to the MAC All-Freshman Team, marking just the second time in program history that two freshmen have been honored by the league.
