NEW YORK — Freshman Carol Melo (Brooklyn, N.Y./St. Edmund Prep) has been named to the Skyline Conference Women's Volleyball All-Sportsmanship Team as the league released its year-end awards earlier today.

Melo, a libero who played in all 20 matches, finished third on the team with 190 digs in her rookie campaign and also accumulated 22 aces, 11 assists, and nine kills. She recorded 10 games with double-digit digs, highlighted by a season-high 24 in a league match against Sarah Lawrence.

The all-conference teams and Player, Libero, Rookie, and Coach of the Year awards are voted on by the Skyline Conference's 12 head women's volleyball coaches based on regular-season play.
