Release: 07/20/2007
LEXINGTON, Ky. - The UMKC, North Dakota State, South Dakota State, Valparaiso and Western Illinois women’s volleyball teams have been honored by the American Volleyball Coaches Association with the Game Plan/AVCA Team Academic Award.

Note it lists Valpo even though Valpo's last year in the league was 06-07. The story points out NDSU has had the honor 9 out of the past 12 years while SDSU has had the honor 6 out of the past 12 years. Adding the Jacks and the Bison to the Summit League will help set some academic standards and goals for the league that will benefit all concerned.
