Washington High School All-State Teams: Class 1B

<p>A remarkable high school volleyball season came to an end at the end of November in the state of Washington. After a shortened season earlier this season, it was refreshing to see the prospects being able to compete in a full calendar once again.</p> <p>We spent the last two weeks highlighting the players who stood out over the last few months and sharing with you our own Prep Dig All-State Teams, selected by division and graduation year.</p> <p>This past week, the Washington Coaches Association released their All-State teams, a comprehensive list that selected players from every corner of the Evergreen State. We’ll bring those lists to you over the course of this week and we start with Class 1B.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Players of the Year</strong></p> <p><strong>Ashlynn Archer – Middle Blocker – HS: St. John-Endicott/LaCrosse – Club: College Prep Academy - 2022</strong></p> <p>A 6’1” middle blocker, Ashlynn Archer was a stud for St. John-Endicott/LaCrosse in each of her four years with the team. She was at the top of her game during the last few months, registering a career year in both kills (329, to an average of 5.1 per set) and blocks (77, 1.2 per set).
