All-Ivy Recognition Rolls in for Volleyball

HANOVER, N.H. — Following a regular season campaign that saw the Big Green achieve their highest win total since 2011, four members of the Dartmouth volleyball team received All-Ivy recognition, as announced by the conference Thursday afternoon.

Bomi Ogunlari and Ellie Blain were named Second Team All-Ivy, Amelia Gibbs was an All-Ivy honorable mention, and Grace Wiczek earned a spot on the academic team.

Ogunlari is tied atop the program's single-season blocks list with 96.0 total throughout her junior campaign. She ranks second in the Ivy League with 1.22 blocks per set. The Rockwall, Texas native posted a career-high nine blocks against first-place Yale and it was one of 11 matches in which she had five or more blocks. Ogunlari also registered some of the most efficient matches offensively in program history, going for 10 kills with .769 percentage against NJIT. She was named Ivy League Player of the Week following a sweep of Columbia and Cornell, when she posted 17 kills between both matches and consecutive .667 percentages.

Blain leads the Big Green and ranks sixth in the Ivy League with 3.00 kills per set. She tallied a season-high 19 kills in the season opener against Sacred Heart and later went for a combined 31 kills on the opening day of the Dartmouth Invitational against Siena and Lehigh. The junior also made major contributions defensively in a four-set win over Siena with a career-high 23 digs to complement her 18 kills. In Ivy League play, Blain helped Dartmouth win the conference opener at Harvard with 14 kills. She also posted 13 kills at a .435 clip in a nationally televised match against Penn.

Gibbs is one of the Ivy League's most efficient hitters, currently ranking fourth in hitting percentage at .362. She helped Dartmouth defeat Penn on the road for the first time since 1999 with 12 kills on just 23 attacks (.478) and went for 13 kills at a .500 clip against defending Ivy League champion Brown.

Senior Wiczek, a government major, was named to the Academic Team after an impactful year in which she returned to the court for the first time since 2019 and ranked third in kills per set (2.16). Wiczek notched a season-high 13 kills against Lehigh during the Dartmouth Invitational and racked up 12 kills against both Yale and Cornell.

Dartmouth is set to face No. 1 seed Yale in the Ivy League Tournament semifinals Friday, Nov. 18 at 7 p.m. in New Haven, Connecticut.
