Posted: Nov 22, 2022

STANDISH, Maine – The 2022 College Sports Communicators (CSC) Academic All-District® women's volleyball teams have been released and a pair of Saint Joseph's College players have been honored.

Seniors Hanna Holden (Stoughton, Mass.) and Amanda Darby (Shrewsbury, Mass.) have been recognized for achieving academic excellence. To be honored, a student-athlete must have reached sophomore status, be a starter or major contributor, and have at least a 3.50 cumulative GPA.

Institutions are allowed to nominate a maximum of six student-athletes per team.

Holden, a Biochemistry major, started all 31 matches as a senior setter and produced 70 kills, 52 service aces, 262 digs, and 502 assists this fall. The two-year team captain capped her career with 178 kills, 117 aces, 696 digs, and 1,648 assists in 92 matches.

Darby, a Marine & Environmental Science major, played in all 31 matches as a senior captain and registered 31 kills, 209 assists, and 77 digs during her final collegiate campaign. In 73 career matches, Darby tallied 47 kills, 455 assists, 26 aces, and 173 digs.

The 2022 Academic All-District® Women's Volleyball Teams, selected by College Sports Communicators (formerly known as the College Sports Information Directors of America, or CoSIDA), recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the court and in the classroom. The CSC Academic All-America® program separately recognizes volleyball honorees in four divisions — NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA.

Academic All-District® honorees advance to the CSC Academic All-America® ballot. First-, second- and third-team Academic All-America® honorees will be announced in December. The CSC Academic All-District® teams can be found using the link below.

The Division II and III CSC Academic All-America® programs are partially financially supported by the NCAA Division II and III national governance structures to assist CSC with handling the awards fulfillment aspects for the 2022-23 Divisions II and III Academic All-America® programs. The NAIA CSC Academic All-America® program is partially financially supported through the NAIA national office.
