Trevecca Volleyball | Trojans Hainline and Grant Earn 2025 AVCA All-America Honorable Mention Honors

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Two Trevecca Nazarene University volleyball standouts have added national recognition to their historic 2025 seasons. Senior Skias Hainline and junior Katilyn Grant, already named to the 2025 AVCA NCAA Division II South Region Team, have now been selected as 2025 AVCA NCAA Division II All-America Honorable Mention honorees.

They join a national class that includes 42 first, second, and third-team selections and 117 honorable mention recipients across 29 volleyball programs on the 44th annual AVCA All-America team.

Hainline and Grant helped fuel a resurgence for Trevecca Volleyball, leading the Trojans to 22 victories—the program's most wins in a season since 2012—and a berth in the Gulf South Conference Championship Finals.

The duo also helped Trevecca establish a new school record with 15 conference wins, finish second in the Gulf South after being picked sixth in the preseason poll, match the program record with a 10-match win streak, and open league play 9–0, the best start to conference play in school history.

Below is a closer look at the 2025 seasons that earned both Trojans All-South Region and All-America recognition.
