2015 Nov 19

Rebecca Borquist of Rhinebeck, NY was one of four SUNY New Paltz student-athletes named to the 2015 Volleyball All-SUNYAC teams.

Senior outside hitter Becca Borquist (Rhinebeck, N.Y./Rhinebeck) and junior middle hitter Morgan Roessler (Massapequa, N.Y./Massapequa) were named to the All-SUNYAC First Team, while sophomore setter Maddie Zwickl (Chester, N.Y./Warwick Valley) and junior libero Meg Kinee (Williamstown, N.J./Williamstown) made the All-SUNYAC Second Team and the All-SUNYAC Third Team, respectively.

Borquist earns at least a share of SUNYAC Player of the Year honors for the second consecutive season, joining Katie Becofsky as the only other student-athlete in program history to earn conference Player of the Year honors in back-to-back seasons. Borquist ranked second in the SUNYAC in kills per set (3.62) and eighth in the conference in service aces per set (0.44) in 2015 while also averaging 2.91 digs per set. Borquist is one of just two student-athletes in program history to register at least 1,500 kills and 1,500 digs, with Belgica Santana also achieving the feat from 1997-99. A 2012 graduate of Rhinebeck High School, she is the daughter of Dana and Donna Borquist.
