Beckett named All-District

Nevada senior Ashley Beckett (center) was named to the All-District 12 First Team in Class 3 volleyball recently. Beckett joined Pleasant Hill's Tiffany Vertraete and Jenna Brown, and district champion Harrisonville's Lindsey White, Kimberly Gross and Megan Fisher on the first team. Fellow senior Veronica Mosier was named to the second team. There are six teams in the district but only three had representatives on the first team. In addition to the all-district picks, Nevada had three players named to the All-Southwest Conference teams. Beckett again was on the first team in the all-conference selections, while Mosier and senior Hillary Adams were named to the second team. All of these awards are decided by the coaches from the teams in the district and conference, respectively.
