ISU libero Caitlin Nolan has been named a Third-Team All-American, the American Volleyball Coaches Association announced Dec. 17.

While the honor is Nolan’s first in the All-American category, it marks the seventh consecutive season that an ISU libero has made an All-American team.

The unanimously-selected Big 12 Libero of the Year led the conference with a school-record setting 5.74 digs per set – a mark high enough to rank fifth in the country. Nolan’s 614 digs on the season were the third-most in ISU history.

The Southlake, Texas, native’s record-setting 2014 campaign peaked with a 43-dig outing in Iowa State’s five-set win against Kansas on Oct. 22. With that performance, she set the new ISU record for digs in a match and also tied the Big 12 mark.

Nolan, a junior, was one of two liberos to make an All-American team for the 2014 season, as Wisconsin’s Taylor Morey was named to the Second-Team roster.
