TIOGA COUNTY VOLLEYBALL ALL-STARS: OWEGO SETTER THOMAS HEADLINES SUPERSTAR CAST (2018-12-26)

Tioga County Sports Report
TIOGA COUNTY - Grace Thomas didn't become a two-time all-state selection by accident. She dedicated a lot of time and effort to become one of the best players in Section IV - and that is why the Owego senior is the 2018 Tioga County Sports Report Volleyball Player of the Year.

A senior, Thomas led the Indians to yet another state tournament, where they would finish as runner-up to unbeaten Westhill in the Class B championship. Thomas was named to the all-tournament team.

She was also named to the Windsor Tournament all-tournament team, was chosen a repeat STAC all-star and received a Class B first-team all-state selection for the second straight season.

Thomas dished out 672 assists on the season and was referred to as the team's "biggest court leader" and "quarterback."

Newcomer of the Year
Tioga junior Bri Rossi played a huge role defensively for the Tigers, who would finish the season as the Section IV Class D runner-up to eventual state champion Bainbridge-Guilford (the Bears were repeat champs).

Rossi would register 207 digs on the season, which led to her being recognized as the IAC South Small School division's top specialty player. She also contributed 70 points, 12 kills and four assists.
