Beheler, a senior middle hitter from Butler, Ohio, leads the Lady Cougars with 624 kills and 212 blocks this season. The former Fredericktown High School star has also compiled 38 assists, 36 aces, and 434 digs. In the classroom, she has posted a 3.29 grade point average as a Physical Education/Health Education major.
