JMU volleyball pair named to preseason All-CAA team

JMU senior Lizzy Briones and sophomore Janey Goodman have both been named to the Preseason All-CAA Volleyball Team, as voted on by the league’s coaches and announced by the CAA Thursday afternoon.

Briones racked up the honors as a junior last season, earning an AVCA All-East Coast Region Honorable Mention nod, in addition to First Team All-CAA and First Team All-State spots after tallying 154 blocks over the course of the year.

As a freshman, Goodman made an immediate impact for the Dukes, playing in all 28 matches and starting 20. She led JMU in kills (327) and kills per set (2.95) en route to Second Team All-CAA and CAA All-Rookie honors.
