CHEYENNE – Three Laramie County volleyball players earned all-state honors from the Wyoming Coaches Association on Monday.
Cheyenne East sophomores Elysiana Fonseca and Boden Liljedahl were both recognized as All-Class 4A players. Pine Bluffs junior Jaden Shelit was honored as a Class 2A all-stater.
Fonseca, a middle blocker, posted 131 kills and 56 blocks. Her kills were third-most on the Lady Thunderbirds’ roster, while her blocks total was a team-high.
Liljedahl, a libero, was voted 4A’s defensive player of the year. She passed at a school-record 2.51 clip, breaking the school record held by Sydney Montoya (2013-16), who was voted the state’s defensive player of the year three times.
Lijedahl finished with a team-best 296 digs to help the T-Birds go 13-9 and finish fourth at the state tournament.
Shelit posted 188 kills to go with 139 digs, 22 blocks and 18 ace serves. The Lady Hornets finished the year 5-13 overall.
The three aforementioned players also earned all-conference honors.
Fonseca and Liljedahl were joined on the 4A All-East Conference team by senior Ashley Marshall and junior Kiera Walsh.
Cheyenne South seniors Calysta Martinez and Kiley Still and Central senior Reese Bradley also were named to the all-league team.
Pine Bluffs also had junior Andrea Reifschneider and freshman Emily Haas named to the 2A All-East squad.
