MOUNT VERNON, Ohio (12-6-2010) - Jackie Albrecht, a member of the Mount Vernon Nazarene University women's volleyball team, has been selected to the NAIA All-American Second Team for the second straight year when the All-American Teams were released by the NAIA national office on Monday.

Albrecht, a senior middle hitter from Lexington, Ohio, becomes the first player in MVNU women's volleyball program history to be a two-time NAIA Second Team All-American and she joins former Lady Cougar standout Shena Beheler as the only two players to earn some form of NAIA All-American honors three different times. Albrecht was also an NAIA Honorable Mention All-American in 2008, while Beheler was a two-time NAIA Honorable Mention All-American in 2005 and 2006 and an NAIA Second Team All-American in 2007.

On the season, Albrecht led the entire NAIA with 722 kills – the fourth highest single-season total in school history. The former Mansfield Christian School star also compiled 50 aces, 129 blocks, and 518 digs. She had a .309 attack percentage, a .961 serving percentage, and a .947 serve reception percentage. Among her many honors this year, she repeated as the American Mideast Conference Player of the Year.

For her career, Albrecht ranks third in school history in kills (2,399), fourth in serve attempts (2,693), seventh in digs (2,130), eighth in total blocks (567), and ninth in aces (180).

MVNU finished the 2010 season with a 43-6 overall record. The Lady Cougars won the AMC regular-season title with a perfect 10-0 conference mark.
