Marcelin Named to All-NEC Second Team
After an impressive season with CCSU volleyball, redshirt freshman Nyjha Marcelin was selected to the All-Northeast Conference Second Team on Thursday.
Marcelin led the way on offense for CCSU, leading the team in overall kills (277) and kills per set (3.08). The Glendale, Arizona product was also a huge factor at the net on defense, totaling 48 block assists which is good for second on the team.
Marcelin made a name for herself amongst the firepower of NEC volleyball. At the end of the season, she sat seventh in the conference in hitting percentage and was fourth in total kills and points.
Marcelin had two games this season with 20+ kills, the first coming against Saint Francis U (20) and the next against Sacred Heart (22). She had 16 matches with double-digit kills.
Marcelin will be a pivotal part of the Blue Devils' future on both ends of the court and will be back in Detrick for next year's season.
