Wedderburn makes way on the list with 68 tallies (second-most on UH) and finds a spot on the second team for the first time in the senior’s career. In 2024, Wedderburn was named to the ACWPC All-Academic Team.
Portillo posted the third most points in The Big West this season with 109 (67 goals, 42 assists) to lead LBSU. This is the second All-America distinction after the attacker notched third-team honors back in 2023.

Stanford’s women’s water polo team has made history by sweeping the Association of Collegiate Water Polo Coaches (ACWPC) awards, including five All-American selections and major coaching honors. Ryann Neushul was named Player of the Year, with teammates Christine Carpenter, Jenna Flynn, and Jewel Roemer also recognized. John Tanner earned Head Coach of the Year, while Susan Ortwein was named Assistant Coach of the Year. This marks the 21st consecutive season Stanford has produced multiple ACWPC All-Americans. Neushul’s unique seven-year collegiate career concluded with her as a four-time NCAA champion.
By the Numbers
- Stanford has produced 64 All-Americans in its history, with these individuals accumulating 154 honors.
- Neushul scored 60 goals, ranking second on her team, while Carpenter had 165 saves, allowing only double-digit goals in four games.
Yes, But
While Stanford’s dominance is notable, critics may point out the overall competitiveness of the NCAA landscape, questioning whether this achievement is sustainable long-term as new programs emerge.
State of Play
- Stanford finished the season with a record of 25-1, securing its 10th NCAA title and third in the last four years.
- The team maintained the No. 1 national ranking for most of the season and achieved an impressive 15-0 start.
What’s Next
As the NCAA championship landscape evolves, Stanford will likely continue to focus on maintaining its competitive edge, preparing for potential challenges from emerging programs in future seasons.
Bottom Line
Stanford’s remarkable achievement with sweeping awards mirrors its longstanding commitment to excellence in women’s water polo, signifying both current success and potential as a dominant force in the future.

SPRINGFIELD — There may not be a hotter boys volleyball team in Ohio than the Mount Vernon Yellow Jackets.
And what a time to get hot!
The Cinderella season that coach Chad Sivewright’s squad is authoring has reached the Division II state championship game at Wittenberg University’s Pam Evans Smith Arena.
In Friday night’s Final Four clash, Mount Vernon overpowered favored Nordonia in a three-set sweep, 25-17, 25-14 and 25-19. The Knights’ season ends with a 20-7 record.
Zach Black and Hunter Thompson topped MV at the net with 11 kills apiece. Black and Thompson had seven digs each, too.
Isaiah Campbell was the quarterback of the offense with 29 assists. Black collected 15 points, Thompson 14 points and Cooper Swanson chipped in 7.5 points.
The Yellow Jackets (17-10) will play for a state championship in the newly sanctioned Ohio High School Athletic Association varsity sport on Saturday at 3 p.m. again at Wittenberg.
How hot is Sivewright’s squad?
Mount Vernon is riding a 10-match win streak and has rolled in 12 of its last 13 outings. In fact, the Yellow Jackets have won 15 of their last 16 sets over the past five contests.
The last loss was more than a month ago, a straight-set defeat at the hands of Lakota East on April 26.
Next up in the state championship match will be Cincinnati Archbishop McNicholas. The Rockets (25-1) smashed Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary 25-19, 25-22, 25-16 in the earlier state semifinal.
Hometown caravan
By Dan Werner
It’s almost 100 miles from Mount Vernon High School to Pam Evans Arena on the campus of Wittenberg University in Springfield, Ohio.
Yet the Mount Vernon boys volleyball team certainly didn’t lack support at Friday’s state semifinal encounter.
Well-wishers formed a caravan to honor the team in downtown Mount Vernon on Friday morning.
Dodging raindrops and proudly sporting Mount Vernon Yellow Jacket gear, Steve and Jan Hall went to support their grandson, team member Cooper Swanson.
No doubt Saturday’s state championship match will draw an even stronger crowd as Mount Vernon plays for the crown.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Former University of Hawai’i women’s volleyball All-American Amber Igiede was among the 14 players named to the U.S. Women’s National Team roster for the opening week of the 2025 Volleyball Nations League.
USA Volleyball announced on Friday the roster that will compete in the VNL’s first week of preliminary-round matches set for June 4-8 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The U.S. will open against Italy on June 4 and faces Brazil on June 5, Czechia on June 6 and Korea on June 8. Matches will be shown live and on demand on VBTV.
Igiede is making her debut in the VNL, which features the world’s top 18 teams, and is among four middle blockers on the U.S. roster for opening week. Earlier in May, USA Volleyball announced a roster of 30 players, including eight middles, for the VNL and the coaching staff led by Erik Sullivan will select 14 for each week of the preliminary round.
The tournament opens with three weeks of preliminary play with each team competing in four matches per week. The second week is set for June 18-22 in Belgrade, Serbia and the third week will be played July 9-13 in Arlington, Texas. The top eight teams advance to the final round set for July 23-27 in Łódź, Poland.
Igiede was an AVCA All-America third-team selection in 2022 and 2023 and was an All-Big West first-team pick each of her four seasons with the Rainbow Wahine. She was part of the USA Volleyball Women’s Collegiate Team in 2022 and helped the U.S. claim silver in the NORCECA Pan American Cup in Mexico in 2024. She also played for LOVB Houston in League One Volleyball this season and was voted to the 2025 LOVB Icons first team.
