ATLANTA – One of the most decorated student-athletes in Jacksonville State volleyball program history added another honor on Wednesday afternoon when outside hitter Lena Kindermann was named to the 2022-23 ASUN Conference Fall Winners for Life Team.
Â
The team is composed of one student-athlete from all 14 institutions and honors those who display excellence on and off the playing surface. The Winners for Life team honors a campus citizen that is respected as one who shares and/or demonstrates the ASUN Core Values: Education, Honesty, Student-Athlete Experience, Fairness, Health, Ambition, Respect, Diversity, Inclusion, Leadership, Responsibility and Sportsmanship. To be eligible for the award, the student-athlete must have competed in the current academic year in an ASUN sponsored sport and be in good academic standing at his/her university.
Â
Kindermann is currently pursuing a Master of Arts in English from Jacksonville State University and has a 3.75 grade point average in that graduate program. The Neuenkirchen, Landhagan, Germany, native earned a Bachelor of Science in English from JSU in December 2021 with a flawless 4.0 GPA. Kindermann was also a member of the ASUN All-Academic and First-Team All-Conference Volleyball Teams and earned a selection to the College Sports Communicators' 2022 Academic All-America Team. Serving as team captain for the past three seasons, the fifth-year senior has provided Volleyball lessons off the court and prepared meals for social work groups in her native home of Germany.
Â
The standout outside hitter concluded a stellar five-year career with a dominant 2022 campaign. Kindermann moved into second all-time in program history with 1,745 career kills after leading the ASUN Conference with 390 kills in the regular season. In addition, she finished Top 5 in points (420.0, 3rd), kills per set (3.71, 4th), and points per set (4.00, 5th) as well during the regular season and led Jax State to a 24-6 overall record.
Â
Kindermann is the first ASUN Winners for Life team recipient since Jacksonville State volleyball rejoined the league prior to the start of the 2021 season.
