USC Beach Volleyball's Mollie Ebertin Named to CoSIDA Academic All-District Team
May 20, 2022 | Women's Beach Volleyball
The Trojans’ senior was chosen as the valedictorian of her master’s program
LOS ANGELES – USC beach volleyball senior Mollie Ebertin (Saratoga, Calif./Saint Francis HS) was voted to the 2021-22 CoSIDA (College Sports Information Directors of America) Academic All-District Women's At-Large Team on Thursday, May 19.
As a member of the NCAA All-District 8 Team, which includes athletes from the states of Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawai'i, Oregon, Utah, and Washington; and the entire country of Canada, Ebertin is now eligible to be voted to the CoSIDA Academic All-America Teams, set to be announced in the summer.
Ebertin is the third USC beach athlete to be chosen for at-large academic all-district honors and joins Nicolette Martin (2017) and Nicole Nourse (2021) who each received the same honor and were later chosen for CoSIDA Academic All-America third-team laurels.
Ebertin is a two-time NCAA champion with the Women of Troy (2021, '22) and has won two Pac-12 titles (2019, '22). She received the AVCA's Top Flight award as part of the No. 5 pair with Sunny Villapando and went 25-6 overall (20-5 with Villapando) to conclude her career at USC with 49 victories. Ebertin was named the valedictorian of her Master of Marketing program at USC's Marshall School of Business and earned USC's Stevens' Scholar and David X. Marks Scholar-Athlete honors.
Under third-year head coach Dain Blanton, the Trojans captured their fourth NCAA Championship (fifth national title) and fourth Pac-12 crowns this season. The Women of Troy finished the year ranked No. 1 and had a record of 37-1 with a 36-match win streak intact at the end. USC added four AVCA All-Americans to its history books with the four-time selection of Tina Graudina as well as the third-career honor for Sammy Slater. Graudina was named the Pac-12's Player of the Year a third time and earned Pac-12 and AVCA Pair of the Year honors with partner Hailey Harward, who was also tabbed an AVCA All-American along with sophomore Megan Kraft.
