LEXINGTON, Ky. – Junior setter Camryn Haworth, one of the nation's most dynamic players, was unveiled as Indiana volleyball's fourth All-American in program history, as announced by the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) on Wednesday (December 13th) afternoon.
In a vote by the AVCA committee, Haworth was among 56 athletes in the nation to earn Honorable Mention All-American honors. 14 players made each of the First, Second and Third Team All-American lists.
"Our program is incredibly proud of Cam and all the work she has put into her development at IU," head coach Steve Aird said. "She would be the first to say she owes it to her teammates and shine the light on other people. But I think it is truly important to recognize the accomplishment and how she has elevated her game. She deserves every ounce of credit and respect coming her way. Knowing her, she will get right back in the gym and continue to grind. We believe in her and she believes in IU. We are excited to get back to work in the spring and continue to chase greatness together."
The Fishers, Ind. native took a massive step forward and produced one of the best seasons in program history. Her 1,247 assists led the Big Ten following the conclusion of the regular season and her 73 aces led both the conference and the NCAA.
She averaged 10.22 assists per set, one of three Big Ten setters with 10+ assists per set on the season. The junior helped run an offense that hit .237 on the season, the fourth-best mark in program history. Five Hoosiers had 200+ kills while middle blockers Kaley Rammelsberg (.365) and Savannah Kjolhede (.361) had two of the most efficient offensive seasons in school history.
On the season, Haworth totaled 1,247 assists, 261 digs, 110 kills, 73 aces and 60 blocks. She produced two triple-doubles, the only power five player in the country with multiple on the season. Her 73 aces were most by an IU player since becoming a varsity sport at the school.
Haworth was one of 15 setters to earn All-American honors. Three setters were named to the first team, two were named to the second team and one was named to the third team. Eight more setters, including Haworth, earned Honorable Mention All-American honors.
Of the over 350 starting setters in NCAA division one volleyball, Haworth was among the top four percent of all available selections. She was one of just two Big Ten setters (Nebraska's Bergen Reilly) to earn All-America honors from the AVCA.
For her career, Haworth has 2,862 assists (No. 8 in program history), 164 aces (No. 2 in program history), 706 digs, 124 blocks and 274 kills. She will have a shot at becoming the third player in program history with 4,000 assists next season. She is just 34 aces away from becoming the program's all-time leader from the service line.
Three players in program history, before Haworth, have been honored as All-Americans. Karen Dunham (1985) and Erica Short (2008) earned Honorable Mention honors but Ashley Benson remains the only Hoosier to be named to one of the top three All-American teams. Benson was a third-team selection in 2009 before earning the nod as the program's only first-team selection in 2010, following IU's trip to the Sweet 16.
Haworth, along with libero Ramsey Gary and IU's top-four pin hitters, will return in 2024 to lead the Hoosiers into the new era of the Big Ten. IU matched a program record for regular season wins (21) in 2023 and will bring five returning starters into the new year in Bloomington.
