CHICO, California - A total of five student-athletes from the San Francisco State volleyball team have been named to the CCAA All-Conference team.
Bailey Johnson and Drew Morris were named to the All-CCAA First Team while Trinity Barr took home Second Team recognition. Jessica Haynie and Payton Jensen were named Honorable Mention. The five All-CCAA honorees for SF State are the most ever by the Gators in a season.
Johnson had a standout senior campaign, ranking fourth in the CCAA and 33rd nationally with a .364 hitting percentage, which is currently the second-best hitting mark in program history. The senior also ranks in the top ten in the conference in kills with 255, which also leads the team and is a career best. This is the first All-CCAA nod for Johnson, who is on pace to rank second in career hitting percentage in SF State history.
Morris also had a breakout 2019 season, recording career highs in hitting percentage, kills, aces and points. The junior is sixth in the conference with 3.23 kills per set and fifth in points with 3.62 per set. Morris leads the team with ten double-doubles and has appeared in every match this season. This is also her first All-CCAA team appearance and is one of just four juniors on the First Team.
Barr made an instant impact for SF State in her first collegiate season, hitting .324 on the year which is the ninth-best in the conference and 85th in the country. Earlier this year, Barr hit .741 with 21 kills in a match, which is the fourth-best hitting mark in a contest for a Gator since 2003. Her 249 kills are the most by a Gator freshman since 2012, and she becomes the first freshman All-CCAA honoree for SF State since Meagan Wright earned the recognition in 2012.
Haynie makes it back-to-back All-CCAA nods after taking home Second Team honors a season ago. The junior is fourth in the conference with 0.43 aces per set, and her 41 total aces are their third most in the CCAA. Haynie is fourth on the team with 249 kills and second in total points with 300. She becomes the first consecutive All-CCAA honoree for SF State since Jaclyn Clark in 2014-15.
Ranking first in the conference and 51st nationally with 43 aces, Jensen earns her first career All-CCAA award after a stellar sophomore season. The setter has 985 assists on the year, ranking second in the CCAA, and is 36th in the country with 10.34 assists per set. Jensen already ranks fifth all time in program history in assists with 1,877.
The Gators kick off the CCAA Tournament this Thursday at 2:30 p.m. against No. 25 Cal State Los Angeles in San Bernardino. Live stats and a stream will be provided.Â
