HUNTINGDON, Pa. – Three Juniata College women's volleyball athletes have been named to the ECAC Division III South All-Star team, which was unveiled Thursday.

Senior Libby Morrison (Portland, Ore./Oregon Episcopal School) was a First Team selection, and was named ECAC South Defensive Player of the Year.  Junior hitter Kelsey Fuller (Red Lion, Pa./Red Lion) and sophomore setter Courtney Greenberg (Fort Myers, Fla./Fort Myers) were also named to the ECAC South All-Stars First Team.
