Linfield volleyball earned three All-Northwest Conference honorees on Monday afternoon, naming sophomore Naia Alefaio-Foifua to the Second Team, senior Nora Myre and sophomore Tatum Montiel to the Third Team. For Myre, it's her third all-conference recognition, Alefaio-Foifua's second in as many season's and Montiel's first in her collegiate career.

Naia Alefaio-Foifua served as the Wildcats starting libero in 21 of 23 matches this season, leading the team defensively for a second consecutive season. The Seattle, Washington, native totaled 375 digs over 75 sets for an average of 5.00 digs per set, where she ranked No. 2 in the conference and No. 43 in Division III. Alefaio-Foifua was also the 'Cats best behind the service line, dealing 32 aces in her sophomore campaign. She followed up on her strong freshman campaign that earned her Third Team All-NWC, now honored on the Second Team in her second season in the purple and cardinal. A business major, Alefaio-Foifua remains a defensive staple in head coach Jenna Street's lineup for the future.

Now a three-time all-conference honoree, senior outside hitter Nora Myre closes her career with Third Team honors. The Redmond, Washington, native ended her career ranking inside the top-ten in program records for kills (818), digs (938), aces (122) and points (985). She competed in all 23 matches this season, bringing her career total to 87. With a team-high 233 kills, she ranked top-ten amongst all in the NWC with an average of 2.86 per set while also in the top-ten of the conference in digs per set (2.94). Planning to graduate with her degree in political science and psychology, Myre spent the last three seasons as one of the best offensive and defensive threats in the Northwest Conference. 

Sophomore Tatum Montiel earned her first All-NWC honor in her sophomore season after ranking second on the team in kills while also adding 27 blocks down low. The outside hitter from Coos Bay, Oregon, took a step forward this season, competing in 22 of 23 matches and racking up 183 kills. Montiel improved ine very statistical category from her rookie season, now averaging over 2.50 points per set to pair offensively with Myre. The Elementary Education major looks to take over the offense as she eyes her junior season.

Volleyball (10-13, 7-9 NWC) finished the season sixth in the NWC standings in Street's second year at the helm of the program. Street and the 'Cats have posted 19 total wins over the last two seasons, and their 10 wins this season both are program bests in over a decade.
