court last season. That success on the court is mirrored by success in the classroom.
The team received American Volleyball Coaches Association Team Academic Award honors
for the 2024-25 academic year.
BIG RAPIDS, Mich. —
The Ferris State University volleyball program not only achieved success on the court
during the 2024 championship season but was also highly successful in the classroom
as the Bulldogs recently received American Volleyball Coaches Association Team Academic
Award honors for the 2024-25 academic year.
The award, which is sponsored by INTENT and started in the 1992-93 academic year,
honors collegiate and high school volleyball teams that displayed excellence in the
classroom during the school year by maintaining at least a 3.30 cumulative team grade-point
average on a 4.0 scale or a 4.10 cumulative team GPA on a 5.0 scale.
This year marks the 11th consecutive year in which the Bulldogs have achieved AVCA
Team Academic Award recognition.
The AVCA Team Academic Award is the single largest award offered by the number of
schools, players and coaches honored. Since the 2000-2001 season, the number of recipients
has increased nearly every year.
The number of award winners has increased from 62 during the initial year to a record
1,450 college and high school programs this year.
“It is very exciting to see that the record-setting, on-court successes during the
2024-25 season have extended to the classroom,” AVCA CEO Jaime Gordon said. “The fact
that more programs earned the Team Academic Award than ever before is evidence of
how committed our coaches are when it comes to helping their players reach their goals
as both students and athletes.”
The Bulldogs capped off a historic 2024 campaign last fall with a 34-1 overall record,
winning the Midwest Regional Championship for the first time since 2013 and reaching
the NCAA Division II Elite Eight. FSU reached the DII Sweet Sixteen for the fourth-straight
year, made its 13th consecutive national tournament appearance along with the 28th
in program history.
In addition, the Bulldogs also continued an impressive recent stretch by winning yet
again the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Regular Season and Tournament
Championships under National Coach of the Year Tia Brandel-Wilhelm.
The AVCA honors follow recognition for the women’s golf team, ranking among the nation’s
top squads in the Women’s Golf Coaches Association All-Scholar Team GPA Award rankings.
The WGCA announced its Division II top 25 squads and the Bulldogs finished 12th overall
on the list with a 3.805 cumulative team grade point average in 2024-25.
Nearly 200 Ferris State student-athletes achieved GLIAC All-Academic and All-Academic
Excellence Team honors for the 2024-25 campaign. Ferris State golfer Kamryn Shannon
and tennis player Erik Kovacs earned the GLIAC Commissioner’s Award for academic and
athletic excellence.

Nebraska volleyball player Ally Batenhorst to train for 2028 Olympics

A former Nebraska Cornhusker and professional indoor volleyball player is making a transition to the beach. Ally Batenhorst is pairing with reigning beach volleyball world champion Sara Hughes, leading up to the LA 2028 Olympics.
Battenhorst spent the last year playing for the Omaha Supernovas in the Pro Volleyball Federation. The former Husker told NBC 4 Los Angeles that she’s excited to make this change in her volleyball career.
“I would say it’s like a completely different sport. You have to learn little things like wind and you’re outside and it’s only two of you, so little things like that are an adjustment for sure. But at the end of the day, it’s volleyball.”
Battenhorst played at Nebraska from 2021 to 2023, participating in both indoor and beach volleyball. She would transfer to USC for the 2024 season and would be named an AVCA All-American Honorable Mention.
Hughes began looking for a new partner after suffering from an Achilles tendon injury, and her 2024 Olympic partner, Kelly Chen, left to partner with Molly Shaw.

Hungary Beats Serbia, Faces Spain in Men’s Water Polo WC Final

The Hungarian men’s water polo team defeated reigning Olympic champions Serbia 19–18 in the semi-finals of the World Championships in Singapore on Tuesday.
The Hungarians led by five goals with just six minutes remaining, but the Serbs mounted a late comeback, making for a tense finish. The victory marks Hungary’s first win over Serbia at the World Championships since 1998.
Following the latest triumph in Fukuoka in 2023, national team captain Zsolt Varga is now preparing for his second consecutive World Championship final at the helm of the men’s team. Hungary will face European champions Spain in Thursday’s final. The two sides met earlier in the tournament during the third round of the group stage, where Spain edged out Hungary by a single goal, thanks to a 5–1 run in the fourth quarter.
Hungary is on the brink of making history: if Varga’s team defeat Spain, the country will secure its fifth world championship title—more than any other nation. Hungary currently shares the record with Italy, both holding four titles. Prime Minister Viktor Orbán alluded to this in his congratulatory message on Facebook, declaring: ‘Hungary is a polo kingdom!’
The Hungarian women’s water polo team also advanced to the final and will face Greece on Wednesday.
Hungary has long been a powerhouse in the sport. The national team has been crowned European champions 13 times—a continental record. Notably, Hungary’s most recent European title came in 2020, in a dramatic shootout victory against Spain.
The country is also the most successful nation in Olympic water polo history, having secured nine gold medals. Hungary famously won three consecutive Olympic titles from Sydney 2000 to Beijing 2008—an unprecedented feat in the modern era. Between 1928 and 1980, Hungary reached the podium in every Olympic tournament, claiming 12 consecutive medals, including back-to-back golds in 1932–1936 and 1952–1956.
