SAN MATEO, Calif. - Santa Clara beach volleyball player Michelle Shaffer was named 2022 preseason All-West Coast Conference as voted by the league's seven head coaches, the league announced on Friday. The Broncos were selected to finish fourth by a vote of the same panel.
Shaffer closed out the shortened 2021 season with a 7-5 record. This season, the Bronco senior has compiled a 16-8 record thus far, topping the team in wins.
