Augusta State Wins PBC Volleyball Team Sportsmanship Award

Augusta State University was named the recipient of the 2011 volleyball Team Sportsmanship Award by the Peach Belt Conference on Thursday.  The Peach Belt Conference presents one such award for each of its 13 championship sports, the award is voted on by other teams in that sport.

The volleyball award is the second for the Jaguars in the four-year history of the awards program.  ASU also won in 2008.

The program presents an award following each championship season to the team in that sport that best exemplifies the spirit of sportsmanship and generally conducts themselves with a high degree of integrity, character and class. The team award is selected by other teams who compete in that sport. Points are awarded based on how each team finished in the voting and in June, the institution with the highest totals will receive the ‘PBC Institution of the Year Sportsmanship Award.’

The league’s Senior Woman Administrators will oversee the program.
