Wahoo Neumann volleyball opponents were well aware of Alyssa Stanek's power as a hitter, but her versatility helped the Cavaliers succeed.

"Alyssa is a great athlete that just wants her team to have success even if all eyes are on her," Neumann coach Shelly Hagemann said. "She would find other ways of putting the ball away in the front row like tipping to the open spot or a roll shot to the corners to keep defenses off-balance. Every team was keying on the hard hit so she just changed her tempo and made the defense move."

Junior Allison Bachman was named to the All-HAC first team in volleyball while senior Laura Pemberton and sophomore Amanda Pieper earned honorable mention.

Pemberton also earned a spot on the All-Academic team.

Fremont High's volleyball team ended the season with a 9-21 overall record.
