Hegerle and Holen are the first Jimmies to earn first-team accolades in program history, while the national Coach of the Year award is the first in Hegerle’s career.<\/p>\n

Hegerle tied for the team lead with a .305 hitting percentage and was second on the Jimmies with 301 kills. Holen led UJ with 322 kills and was second on the team with 498 digs.
