NPCC volleyball earns AVCA Team Academic Award

North Platte, Neb. – The 2023-24 North Platte Community College volleyball team was honored by the American Volleyball Coaches Association as a recipient of the AVCA Team Academic Award sponsored by INTENT.

“This is a reflection of how hard our players work in the classroom,” said head coach Alexa McCall. “We appreciate our faculty for pushing our student-athletes in the classroom and providing them exceptional educational opportunities.”

INTENT, which is in its first year of sponsoring the prestigious award, is a game-changing, digital platform links student-athletes (along with military special ops veterans) to a powerful network of candidate-seeking employers. The tech, information and internet company guides student-athletes and service members toward professional and personal success in life after sports and service.

The Knights were just one of seventeen teams from the National Junior College Association Division II level to receive this recognition.

North Platte will open the 2024 season against Laramie County Community College at the McCook Community College Tournament on Aug. 23.
