EVANSTON, Ill. - Northwestern volleyball saw four student-athletes named to the College Sports Communicators' (CSC) Academic All-District Team, the organization announced Tuesday. Sienna Noordermeer, Campbell Paris, Rylen Reid and Drew Wright all earned the honor, which is based on both academic and athletic achievement.
Noordermeer collects the first All-District award of her career following a senior season that saw her tally more than 500 assists. Over 121 sets for the 'Cats in 2025, Noordermeer reached single-season career highs in service aces (16) and digs (176) in addition to assists (507). Along the way, she collected three double-doubles - her most ever in a season.
In her first fall in Evanston, Paris made an impact on both offense and defense, posting the most productive season of her collegiate career to date. The junior finished fourth on the team in kills, with 252, and third on the team in blocks, with 68 - both single-season career highs. She also led all Wildcat pin hitters with a .287 hitting percentage, which ranked among the top ten by a junior in Northwestern program history.
Reid had a breakout senior season, collecting more kills in 2025 than she had in the rest of her career combined. Buoyed by a 27-kill performance against Iowa, Reid's 353 total kills finished second on the roster, and her .245 hitting percentage was the best of any season of her career. In addition to the powerful attack, Reid was also a force from the service line, where she racked up 44 aces to rank second on the team. On November 21, she became the fourth Wildcat ever to record eight or more aces in a single match when she led the team to victory over Ohio State on the road. She collects CSC All-District honors for the second time in her career
Wright appeared in all 126 sets for the Wildcats in 2025, tying for sixth most ever by a Northwestern player in a single season. Playing each match at libero, the junior set a single-season career high with 32 service aces while ranking second on the team in digs, with 266. With 13 digs in the season finale at Illinois, Wright recorded her 11th double-digit performance of the season and the 36th of her collegiate career.
In order to be eligible for All-District selection, a student-athlete must be at least a sophomore, earn a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or higher, and compete in 90 percent of the team's competitions or start at least 66 percent of them.
