ROSEMONT, Ill. – Five Hoosiers were honored by the Big Ten on Tuesday (Dec. 2) afternoon following the greatest regular season in the history of the Indiana volleyball program. Postseason awards were released today by the conference office ahead of the start of this week's NCAA Tournament.
For the first time in program history, IU had three players selected as First Team All-Big Ten members. Senior outside hitter Candela Alonso-Corcelles, senior opposite hitter Avry Tatum and freshman setter Teodora Krickovic were among 25 conference athletes selected to the All-Big Ten First Team in 2025.
Tatum, a team captain, has enjoyed a tremendous senior campaign for the Hoosiers this season. She recorded 336 kills in the regular season, providing 3.23 kills per set. The Solana Beach, California native hit at a .326 offensive clip, nearly 40 points better than her mark from last season. Tatum had 21 matches with 10-or-more kills and recorded 57 blocks, 61 digs, and 13 aces.
Alonso-Corcelles has turned into one of the elite six-rotation athletes in the conference during her final season with the Hoosiers. She recorded a team-best 3.47 kills per set and had 361 kills overall. She hit .243 in 30 regular season matches, her first season with an offensive efficiency above .200 in her career.
The Madrid, Spain native added 207 digs, 21 aces and a career-high 62 blocks in her senior campaign. With a win over Illinois on Nov. 26, Alonso-Corcelles became the winningest player in program history (75). She is top 10 in school history in kills (1,345) and heads into the tournament with a chance to earn All-American honors.
Krickovic was tasked with replacing star setter Camryn Haworth in 2025 and took the position to new heights. She provided 1,109 assists and finished the regular season among the nation's elite at 10.66 assists per set. The Novi Sad, Serbia native helped set IU to a team hitting percentage of .280 – a mark that is on pace to break a single-season program record.
She is the first freshman in program history to be named First Team All-Big Ten in their debut season. It's the fourth-straight year that an IU setter has earned All-Big Ten honors. In three of the last four years, IU has had a First Team All-Big Ten player at the position.
Before this season, IU had never had two players selected to the All-Big Ten First Team in the same season. In 2025, the Hoosiers provided three in the same year. IU is one of five conference programs (Nebraska, UCLA, Wisconsin and Purdue) with three-or-more First Team All-Big Ten athletes.
As expected, Krickovic was one of 10 players named to the Big Ten's All-Freshman team. She was joined by freshman outside hitter Jaidyn Jager, the only unanimous selection in the conference. Jager was a Second Team All-Big Ten pick as well after providing 3.35 kills per set and 2.22 digs per set.
For the first time in program history, IU landed two different first-year players on the Big Ten's All-Freshman team. Krickovic and Jager are the seventh and eighth athletes respectively in IU history to be selected to the team. Three of those eight players (Ramsey Gary) have come in the past three campaigns.
IU's four athletes selected to All-Big Ten teams in 2025 are the most in a single year in program history. Before this season, IU had three athletes named to the respective teams on four occasions – most recently in 2023 (Haworth, Rammelsberg and Gary).
Junior setter Luca Fickell was named IU's selection as the Big Ten Sportsmanship Honoree. Each program provided a student-athlete that represents the core values that the school stands for. Fickell has been a tremendous teammate and support system for every player in the program.
Head coach Steve Aird and the Hoosiers begin their NCAA Tournament journey on Thursday (Dec. 4) evening in Bloomington. IU will take on the MAC tournament champions, Toledo, at Wilkinson Hall. It's IU's first tournament game since 2010 and Toledo's first in program history.
