TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – For the second consecutive season, senior Leah Lawrence has earned First Team Academic All-District 4 honors, announced by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Thursday.

On the court, she leads the team in kills (253), attack percentage (.315) and blocks (113), recently becoming the Crimson Tide's career blocks leader following the Nov. 12 win over Tennessee.
The honor marks the 21st Academic All-District award in volleyball program history and is the second for the Huntsville, Ala., native. Lawrence now advances to the Academic All-America ballot with the winners to be announced in December.
