Five make all-district volleyball

Logan saw three players and San Jon had two earn all-district volleyball honors in Class 1A's rugged District 6.

The Lady Longhorns (19-8), who advanced to the state semifinals before being downed by eventual champion Melrose, had these players earn all-district honors:

• Senior outside hitter/setter Reece Goldston;

• Senior outside hitter/setter Rilee Nials;

• Senior libero Kyra Conway.

Goldston also was selected to the New Mexico High School Coaches Association's small-school all-star volleyball team in the annual Red vs. Green game this past weekend in Albuquerque.

Honorable mentions for Logan were senior back-row player Sierra Horne and sophomore hitter Natalie Bongers.

For San Jon, sophomore setter and outside hitter Karlee Elliott and freshman middle blocker and middle hitter Chantzee Elliott earned first-team district honors.

The Lady Coyotes finished 11-10 this season after enduring a winless campaign previously.

Sophomores Sarah Archuleta and Bailey McEwen were honorable mentions for San Jon.
