MOUNT VERNON, Ohio - Shena Beheler, a member of the Mount Vernon Nazarene University women’s volleyball team, has been selected as an NAIA Honorable Mention All-American for the second straight year when the NAIA released its All-American Teams on Monday afternoon.

Beheler, a junior middle hitter from Butler, Ohio, led the Lady Cougars with a school-record 792 kills and 242 blocks this season. She also registered 32 assists, 52 aces, and 463 digs. In addition, her kills per game average of 4.63 was also a new school record. Beheler joins former MVNU standout Tara Seiter (1997 and 1998) as the only players in the program’s history to be an NAIA All-American twice.

For her career, Beheler now ranks second in school history with 2,084 career kills and 737 career blocks as she trails just Seiter in both categories. The former Fredericktown High School star also ranks eighth in career serve attempts (2,205) and seventeenth in career digs (1,101).

The Lady Cougars finished the season with a 31-18 overall record for the program’s fourteenth straight season with 30 or more victories. MVNU also reached the NAIA Region IX Tournament for the thirteenth straight year and the National Christian College Athletic Association National Tournament for the sixteenth straight season.
