Rackliffe Selected Player of the Year as Volleyball Lands Three on All-MASCAC Teams

Framingham, Mass. – The Framingham State University volleyball team placed three players on the 2015 Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference (MASCAC) volleyball all-conference team including junior right side Alycia Rackliffe (Feeding Hills, Mass.), who headlines the all-conference squad as she was chosen the 2015 MASCAC Player of the Year in voting conducted by the league's coaches. 

Joining Rackliffe on the All-MASCAC first team is senior outside hitter Danielle Girard (Tivoli, NY), while junior middle hitter Julia Wan (South Deerfield, Mass.) has been selected to the second team.

Rackliffe earns her third straight first team All-MASCAC nod after leading the MASCAC in kills (410) and kills per set (4.06). She finished the regular season second in hitting percentage (.331) and blocks per set (0.82) and was tabbed as the conference player of the week four times during the season.

Girard earns her third All-MASCAC accolades of her career after leading the Rams in digs (362), digs per set (3.48) and service aces (76).  Wan also earns her second All-MASCAC honors after being a first team selection a season ago.  Wan was second on the Rams in digs (201), service aces (49) and kills (194).

The 2015 Rams finished the regular season 23-8 overall and 5-1 in the MASCAC which earned them a share of the MASCAC regular season title with MCLA.  The Rams are in action on Saturday in a semifinal match of the 2015 MASCAC Volleyball Championship Tournament.
