Volleyball Underclassman of the Year
"Franklin sophomore Lauren McGrath has been selected as the 2016 HockomockSports.com Volleyball Underclassman of the Year. McGrath was the starting setter for the Panthers and helped guide Franklin back to the postseason.
As a setter, McGrath was responsible for getting the Panthers’ offense in motion. As just a sophomore, McGrath impressed at accomplishing that as Franklin finished with an overall record of 13-7.
“Lauren has good skills and is a terrific athlete; that makes for a good volleyball player,” Franklin head coach Kate Horsmann said. “What sets her apart is the energy and enthusiasm she brings to everything she does. She was the heartbeat of our team this year.”
McGrath finished with 359 assists to lead the Panthers. The sophomore also tied for a team-high in aces with 46. She also chipped in with 79 digs and 11 kills.
McGrath is the first Franklin volleyball player to win the HockomockSports.com Underclassman of the Year award and eighth Franklin player of any sport to win it (Victoria Stowell, girls soccer; Annie Walsh, field hockey; Jay Dieterle, boys basketball; Nick Santucci, baseball; Michael Sullivan and Eric Civetti; boys lacrosse; Kendall Reardon, girls lacrosse)."
