June 29, 2020 | Women's Volleyball
Texas Tech has placed a student-athlete on the preseason team for six straight seasons.
IRVING, Texas – Texas Tech volleyball's Brooke Kanas was named to the 2020 All-Big 12 Preseason Team, announced by the league Monday. The nod marks the second straight year that Kanas has been named to the preseason squad.
Â
"Congratulations to Brooke on her preseason selection," head coach Tony Graystone said. "She's a big part of our offense and I know she's going to have a great season."
Â
Coming off of a fantastic freshman season in 2018, Kanas turned it up a notch in 2019 and finished third on the team with 255 kills. The New Braunfels, Texas, native tallied a season-high 19 kills twice (once against Lehigh and the other against TCU) and posted a career-high .607 hitting percentage against Lehigh on opening weekend. Kanas made nine starts in her sophomore campaign and finished the season with 11 double-digit kill matches.
Â
With Kanas on this year's preseason squad, the Red Raiders have now had a student-athlete make the preseason team for six straight years.
