Seward County Lady Saints hitters Sheina Fernandes and
Daiane Souza have both been named Jayhawk West All-Conference in a
release from the KJCCC this morning. Fernandes was named 1st Team
All-Conference for the second straight season after a season in which
she led the conference in hitting percentage and blocks per game as well
as finishing second in kills per game. She led Seward in five different
categories including kills (490), kills per game (3.16), hitting
percentage (.354), blocks (147), and blocks per game (.95). Souza was a
2nd Team All-Conference selection in her freshman season for Seward
after finishing second on the team to Fernandes in kills (348), kills
per game (2.38), and hitting percentage (.202) while also finishing
second on the stat sheet for the Lady Saints in aces (45), and aces per
game (.31). The two also proved their worth in the Lady Saints run to
the Region VI Tournament Championship match after the voting was
completed as Souza recorded the two highest kill totals of her career
with 18 against Pratt and 19 against Barton while Fernandes led the team
with 80 kills and 25 blocks in the 5 matches.
