LEXINGTON, KY. – Seton Hall senior Tessa Fournier (Redondo Beach, Calif.) was named an All-East Coast Region Honorable Mention today by the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA).
It's the third straight season that she has earned AVCA All-Region honors, as she was an Honorable Mention in 2015 and a First Team member in 2014.
Recently named BIG EAST Libero of the Year for at third time, Fournier lead the BIG EAST in digs per set (5.03) for a third consecutive season. Named to Seton Hall Classic All-Tournament Team, she recorded at least 20 digs in a single-match 14 times this season, including a season-high 33 digs vs. Butler on Sept. 23. Fournier completed the regular season with 22 digs in only three sets in a must-win match vs. St. John's on Nov. 19, and was rightfully named BIG EAST Player of the Week for her performance. Earlier this season, she was named one of only 30 candidates nationwide for the prestigious Senior CLASS Award, which honors excellence on the court, in the classroom and in the community.
Fournier's 544 digs this season is the eighth-highest single-season total in Seton Hall history. She now possesses the eighth, fifth and first positions on that list. This season, she also moved into second place on the Pirates' career digs list becoming only the second Pirate to record more than 2,000 digs.
