Mary Washington swept the individual honors as senior Anne Lutkenhaus was named CAC Player of the Year, freshman Laura Gomez was named CAC Rookie of the Year and head coach Dee Conway was named CAC Coach of the Year.
Mercer finished second on the team with 293 kills while leading the team with a .317 hitting percentage and 84 total blocks.

In three seasons with the Mustangs, Mercer has totaled 814 kills and a .276 hitting percentage along with 263 total blocks, leading the team each season.
The Mustangs finished the season with 13 wins, giving them 45 over the last two, the highest two-year total in school history after the team won a school record 32 a year ago.
