“I am proud of the work that our team did in the classroom this year,” MSU Head Coach Matt Houk said. “It goes to show they are well rounded student-athletes. They get it done on the court, in the classroom, and in the community. It’s been another great year for Bobcat Volleyball.”
For the ninth time in the history of the Montana State volleyball program, the Bobcats have earned American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Team Academic recognition.
A record number of volleyball programs earned the AVCA Team Academic Award sponsored by INTENT. More than 1,400 collegiate and high school volleyball programs maintained a year-long grade-point average of 3.3 on a 4.0 scale (or 4.1 on a 5.0 scale), to earn the award for their classroom excellence during the recently completed academic year.
"We are pleased that the record-setting success of the 2023-24 season on the court has extended to the classroom, too, as evidenced by more programs earning the Team Academic Award than ever before," AVCA CEO Jaime Gordon said. "This is a great example of how committed our coaches are when it comes to helping their players reach their full potential as both students and athletes."
The Montana State volleyball team posted a 3.54 grade-point average and had ten athletes earning All-Big Sky Conference Academic accolades. Earning All-Big Sky Academic honors were Camryn Greenwald, Audrey Hofer, Jourdain Kamps, Lauren Lindseth, Delaney Shearan, Madilyn Siebler, Kira Thomsen, Avery Turnage, Courtney Weatherby, and Shayla Webber.

The Bobcats open its 2024 schedule hosting Big 10 newcomer Washington, Aug. 30 in Shroyer Gym.
