LEXINGTON, Ky. (July 21) – The Waynesburg University volleyball team was recently honored for its excellence in the classroom by the one of the largest and most respected collegiate volleyball organizations in the country.
The 2010 Yellow Jackets were honored with an American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Team Academic Award.
