The Cameroonian was also impressive on offense, raking in 247 kills at a clip of .368 percent which led the team.



An honorable mention pick in 2022 as a freshman, Carlson averaged 10.42 assists per set this season, dishing out 1,188 overall assists. In addition, she served up 37 aces on the season at a .972 serve percentage.



McGhee led the Bears on the season in kills, attempts and points, finishing her junior campaign with 412 kills at 3.78 kills per set. She was also hot from the service line, serving up 33 aces with her jump serve. McGhee tallied five matches with 20 or more kills and had double-digit kills in 22 matches overall.
