Not sure if y'all have already heard, but not only were some of our boys put on watch lists, volleyball star Bailey Webster was nominated for NCAA Woman of the Year. Pretty awesome to see UT being recognized in so many different ways!

"Webster nominated for NCAA Woman of the Year
The award recognizes senior student-athletes who have distinguished themselves throughout their collegiate careers in the areas of academic achievement, athletics excellence, service and leadership.
IRVING, Texas -- The Big 12 Conference has nominated former Texas Volleyball All-America Bailey Webster for 2014 NCAA Woman of the Year, the league office announced Tuesday. Webster is joined by Oklahoma State track and field standout Caitlin Way as the league's two nominees for the prestigious honor.
The award recognizes senior student-athletes who have distinguished themselves throughout their collegiate careers in the areas of academic achievement, athletics excellence, service and leadership. The top 10 honorees and the nine finalists from Divisions I, II and III will be honored, and the 2014 NCAA Woman of the Year winner announced at a dinner in Indianapolis on October 19, 2014.
Webster competed on four NCAA Division I Volleyball Final Four teams, including the 2012 championship squad during her career with the Longhorns. The outside hitter was named Most Outstanding Player of both the 2012 NCAA Championship and Austin Regional and of the 2013 Nebraska Regional. Webster was a three-time All-Big 12 First Team selection and named the 2011 Big 12 Player of the Year in addition to All-America honors in three seasons.
The advertising graduate student garnered Capital One/CoSIDA Academic All-America Third Team honors in 2013 and was selected to three Academic All-Big 12 First Teams during her career. Webster was inducted into Texas' Friar Society in 2013, which is the oldest and most prestigious honor society at UT. She also received the V.F. "Doc" Neuhaus Award recognizing her athletic and academic accomplishments.
Webster served as a team captain in two seasons and was a five-year member of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, including president in 2013-14. The San Antonio, Texas native's civic projects were UT and Me, Survivor Challenge, Orange Santa and instructing students at youth volleyball clinics."
