Goldey-Beacom's Breanne Haley (Elkton, MD) was picked Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference Volleyball Rookie of the Year as well as second team all-league with senior Jax Babezki (Warrington, PA) tabbed third team all-conference.

Haley walked onto the Pike Creek campus with unlimited potential and more than fulfilled it in being named the league's Rookie of the Week six times, the league's Player of the Week once and the CACC Weekly Honor Roll twice. She also is the second straight Lightning to get this award as Lindsay Przywara (Williamstown, NJ) was so honored last year.

Haley has been dominant on the court with her incredible net play and it shows in the national stats, not to mention she has 20 double-doubles this year. She is 11th in the country with 461 kills, 15th with 4.81 points per set and 16th with 4.27 kills per set.

Making the school's record books, Haley's 461 kills already is the College's single-season record and is just outside the school's career top 10 list. Her 360 digs are tied for 10th on the school's single-season list.

Babezki made a big splash in her second and final season with the Lightning. Her top matches this year were the two against Wilmington (DE), of which she combined for 31 kills and a .424 hitting percentage.

Babezki also is 11th in the CACC with a .250 hitting percentage, 12th with 251 kills, 15th with 2.32 kills per set, 19th with 11 block solos. She notched double figures in kills 11 times this season.

Goldey-Beacom (12-18, 10-9 CACC) clinched its first winning league record and first conference tournament berth both since 2006. The squad will be in action Tuesday in the quarterfinals at 7:00 pm at Caldwell, champions of the North Division and a finalist in last year's tournament.
