More than three dozen from the WPIAL have earned all-state girls volleyball recognition by the Pennsylvania Volleyball Coaches Association.

The four lists were released Monday and honor the top players from each of the 12 districts for accomplishments during a season unlike any other.

Seneca Valley senior setter Sarah White capped her standout high school career with her fourth all-state selection.

North Allegheny seniors Paige Miller and Paige Morningstar, who helped the Tigers capture their fourth consecutive state championship with a win over District 1’s Unionville on Nov. 21, are now three-time picks.

Shannon Watkins, a senior setter from Laurel Highlands, also was recognized as an all-state performer for the third time. The first two selections came as a member of the girls team at Geibel.

Picking up all-state honors for the second time are Moon junior Molly Simmons, Canon-McMillian senior Jenna Vogen, Franklin Regional senior Aly Kindelberger, Beaver senior Eden McElhaney, North Catholic senior Elizabeth Feczko and Fort Cherry senior Reagan Carter.
