Marble voted 2B volleyball player of year

4 netters named All-State

Another week, another slew of post-season honors earned by the state 2B champion La Conner High School volleyball program.

As expected, senior outside hitter Ellie Marble, who led the Lady Braves to their fourth state title in five years, was named the 2B Player of the Year.

The 6'-0" Marble is a top Central Washington University volleyball recruit.

She dominated play at the 2022 State 2B Tournament in Yakima last month, totaling 92 kills and 101 digs and was 68 of 72 on serve receive over four matches at the SunDome.

Marble is joined on the 2B All-State first team by teammate Makayla Herrera, a 6'-2" senior middle blocker, also a major force at the net.

That's not all.

Senior middle blocker Josie Harper and junior outside hitter Morgan Huizenga garnered All-State honorable mention recognition.

In another non-surprise, Suzanne Marble got the nod for state 2B Coach of the Year.

A member since 2015 of the state coaches Hall of Fame, Marble has guided La Conner to seven state crowns over the course of her 30-year career here.

All-State recipients were selected by the state coaches association.
