Senior outside hitters Kim Glass and Jennifer Abernathy of the No. 6 Arizona volleyball team have been named to the 14-player All-Pac-10 team, according to a press release.

Glass, who is part of the team for the fourth straight season, was the only player in the conference to register double-digit kills in every match. A two-time Pacific 10 Conference Player of the Week, she led the conference in kills per game (5.78).

Abernathy, a first-time selection, ranked sixth in the conference in kills per game (4.13) and had double-digit kills 23 times this season. She was named the Most Valuable Player of the Wildcat Classic Sept. 2-3 and Pac-10 Player of the Week for the week of Sept. 1-8.

Senior middle blocker Bre Ladd, junior middle blocker Kristina Baum and sophomore middle blocker Dominique Lamb were honorable mention selections to the team.

Ladd, who has been an honorable mention pick for the last four seasons, ranks third all-time at Arizona with 439 career blocks.

Freshman libero Brittany Leonard was named an honorable mention to the Pac-10's All-Freshman team. Her 3.80 digs per game in 2005 would set an Arizona single-season record.
