BOONE, IA

After winning their third straight outright conference championship, Iowa Western led the way with four All-Region selections. 

Reivers Setter Hina Pua'a, had a fabulous season after a stellar freshman campaign last season where she led the nation in assists with 1,564 and 11.17 per set. She only improved off her numbers from last year as this season she's posted 11.52 assists, 1.93 digs, and .43 kills per set for the Reivers. The Hawaii native is currently second in assists with 1405. 

Genesis Sheridan had a solid freshman season and was voted by the coaches as the 2018 ICCAC Division I Volleyball Player of the Year.  Sheridan averaged 2.48 kills and .59 blocks and was among the top freshman in the country.  Her .510 hitting percentage was tops in the country. Heading into the NJCAA National Tourney, she has 308 kills in 516 attempts with only 45 errors. 

After an All-American season in 2017, Irina Alekseeva had another great campaign for the Reivers.   The native Russian native averaged 3.59 kills per set and is ninth in the country in total kills with 441. In two seasons, she has totaled 943 kills.

Ariana Macies was all over the court this season for the Reivers as their defensive specialist. Like her teammates, Macies is in the top 10 of a statistical category, in this case, digs. She has 608 digs and is second in the nation in that stat. Currently averaging 4.83 digs per set and was named the NJCAA Player of the Week last week after their District J Championship run.
