Ole Miss’ Sasha Ratliff Tabbed To Volleyball Preseason All-SEC Team
Ahead of her senior season, Ole Miss middle blocker and two-time All-SEC team member Sasha Ratliff was one of fifteen student-athletes selected to the 2023 Volleyball Preseason All-SEC Team, the conference announced Wednesday.
It marks the second straight season that Ratliff has earned preseason praise from the SEC. She burst onto the scene as a sophomore and has collected conference honors each of the past two years.
This past season, Ratliff earned All-SEC and AVCA All-Region honors, showcasing why she is one of the top middle blockers in the nation. The Atlanta, Georgia, native capped off her 2023 campaign with 106 total blocks, moving her into fifth all-time at Ole Miss with 291.0 in her career.
Ratliff was also an offensive weapon for the Rebels, tallying the second most kills on the team. She finished her junior season with 277 kills, including 13 matches with double digits, while hitting at a blistering .343 clip that ranked fifth in the SEC.
Now a senior, Ratliff highlights a list of nine returning letterwinners from a season ago. Fans can get their first glimpse of the 2023 squad on August 19, when Ole Miss hosts Arkansas State in an exhibition match at 1 p.m. CT before hitting the road for the opening weekend of the season.
