Kerry Lane (Seattle)

Seattle junior Kerry Lane (Canyon del Oro) has been voted First Team Academic All-District 8 by members of the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA), announced Thursday by the national organization.

Lane is currently second in the WAC with 9.89 assists per set in all matches, collecting a total of 752 assists so far this season.

In her collegiate career, Lane has collected 2,935 assists, just 65 assists away from becoming only the third player in Seattle U volleyball history to reach the 3,000-career assist mark. She is one of only two players in program history to earn at least 1,000 assists in back-to-back seasons, finishing with 1,076 assists in 2013 and 1,107 assists in 2014.

In the classroom, Lane is majoring in mechanical engineering and currently carries a 3.85 grade point average. She is a two-time Academic All-WAC honoree and has helped the Seattle U volleyball receive the AVCA Team Academic Award in back-to-back years. Lane was also on the WAC All-Freshman Team.

Dylan Kelly (IWU)

Dylan Kelly (IWU)

Incarnate Word senior forward Dylan Kelly (Salpointe Catholic) earned Academic All-District VII first team honors. This is the third straight Academic All-District honor for Kelly who earned Academic All-America third team honors last year.

Kelly is an engineering management major who has a 3.86 grade point average. He has scored four goals and dished out seven assists for a total of 15 points this year. He is second in the conference in assists and he is second on the team in points scored. He earned second team all-Western Athletic Conference honors last year.

Lane and Kelly will both advance to the CoSIDA Academic All-America ballot. In order to be eligible for the award a student-athlete must have at least a 3.30 grade point average and have completed one full year at their current institution.

In an effort to recognize all former local prep stars who have gone on to achieve either academic and/or athletic awards at the next level, I will update this list. These are not high school awards but college and professional awards. NOT CHAMPIONSHIPS.
