Another honor for the hardest-hitting volleyball spiker in Cow Town.
Coupeville High School senior Lyla Stuurmans, who was the Northwest 2B/1B League MVP this year, was tabbed as an All-State selection this week by the Washington State Volleyball Coaches Association.
The outside hitter was named to the 2B Second Team, joining players from schools such as Freeman, Adna, and Lind-Ritzville-Sprague.
Stella Petersen, an outside hitter who led Manson to a state title, was picked as the 2B player of the year.
Stuurmans racked up 200 kills, 22 solo blocks, 19 block assists, 113 digs, 30 service aces, and 16 assists during her final season in the red and black.
Coupeville (18-2) was undefeated until the final day of the season, won league and bi-district titles, and earned a program-best 4th place finish at the state tourney.
On the heels of being named to the All-State team, Stuurmans will sign a letter of intent to play volleyball for Skagit Valley College.
