Tigers Receive AVCA Team Academic Honors

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The University of Memphis Volleyball program received the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Team Academic Award for the 2020-21 season. It is the fourth consecutive year that the Tigers have received this honor and the eighth time in the past nine years that the Tigers have been recognized by the AVCA for their academic achievements.

"Having our team achieve the AVCA Team Academic Award this past year is certainly one of the proudest moments that I've had as a head coach, especially considering all of the adjustments and changes our student-athletes and support staff had to make during the pandemic," said head coach Sean Burdette.
