Student-Athlete of the Week: Belen Barocio 

By Faith Holland Posted October 4, 2019

Belen Barocio was chosen as the freshman volleyball Student-Athlete of the Week by coach Cassie Jenkins.

The freshmen team is working hard this season; they have fewer players than normal, but are rising to the challenge. Belen, specifically, has taken on a big challenge. She is the team’s only setter. 

“The setter is on the court the whole game, and the other setter is a Libero, so she is literally the only setter,” said coach Jenkins.

Jenkins appreciates her dedicated attitude and spirited nature. 

“She has great leadership skills,” said Jenkins. “She is always positive, smiling, and just works hard. She is a major asset to our team.”
