University of Southern Indiana Volleyball junior libero Shannon Farrell (Munster, Indiana) has been named Academic All-District by the College Sports Information Directors of America for her efforts in the classroom and on the court.
Farrell, who is double-majoring in accounting & professional services as well as finance at USI, has racked up a 4.00 grade point average during her time at USI.
On the court, Farrell is having another banner year as she leads the Screaming Eagles with 5.37 digs per set.
Last week, Farrell tied USI’s single-match record with 37 digs in USI’s four-set loss to Missouri S&T. She had 21 digs in the fourth set alone.
Farrell, who needs just four digs to move past Jamie Roth (1994-97) for fourth all-time at USI, has racked up 1,258 digs during her three-year career at USI. She needs just 33 digs to become the first player in program history to reach 500 digs in back-to-back seasons.
With the Academic All-District award, Farrell moves on to the national ballot for Academic All-America consideration.
