MILWAUKEE, Wis. – Ari Miller of the Milwaukee volleyball team was named American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) All-North Region on Tuesday morning.
 
It marks Miller's first All-Region selection and Milwaukee's first since Rachel Neuberger in 2013. Miller is one of 14 players on the All-Region team, 11 of whom play in the Big Ten.
 
"Ari had an incredible season overall," head coach Susie Johnson commented. "She has shown she is premier attacker in our region. Her work ethic is unmatched. Ari has great energy and shows up consistently at such a high level and I'm so excited that she was recognized with this great honor."
 
Miller was a staple in the Panthers' lineup, leading Milwaukee to a 22-9 overall record and 16-2 mark in Horizon League play as MKE claimed the program's 14th regular season title and first since 2013.
 
The award comes on the heels of Miller being named Horizon League Player of the Year, Offensive Player of the Year, and First Team All-League. She was also named Horizon League Player of the Week four times, the most of any player this season.
