Senior Earns Third Selection To All Region
Team
This is the Tswwassen, British Columbia, native’s
third selection to the All-Region squad. Charuk was named to the team following
her sophomore season in 2008 and as a junior in 2010. Following both All-Region
selections, she went on to be named an AVCA All-American Honorable Mention.
With her selection to the All-Region Team,
Charuk is eligible for All-American honors that will be announced next week.
“Lucy had an amazing season this year and has
had a tremendous career at UH,” head coach Molly Alvey said. “She has taken
this volleyball team into a top-60 program in the country in two short
years. This award is not only representative of all Lucy has accomplished
on the court, but is a testament to her commitment to this team off the court as
well.
“She has truly committed herself to being an
elite student-athlete and the outcome has shown through in her performance
level on the court. I am so incredibly proud to have been a part of her
development as a student, an athlete and a person. I believe she will be
great at her next endeavor in life. She is so deserving of this award.”
Charuk, a three-time First Team All
Conference USA selection, led the Cougars with 365 kills and a .390
hitting percentage. She also has a team-high 159 blocks, averaging 1.38 per set.
She leaves Houston as the school career
leader in hitting percentage, second in blocks and block assists, sixth in solo
blocks and eighth in blocks per set. Charuk recorded double-digit kills in 22
matches this season and had at least five blocks in 19 matches.
Charuk found herself ranked among the conference leaders in multiple categories at the end of the regular season. She led the league in hitting percentage, ranked second in blocks and fifth in points. She was 14th in the NCAA in blocks per set and 16th in hitting percentage.
Charuk was a vital member of the 2011 volleyball squad that finished with a 19-11 record and a 12-8 C-USA mark.
