A Tewaaraton Award finalist this year, Humphrey claimed first-team All-America honors, including an IWLCA All-America first-team nod, NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player, ACC Attacker of the Year, first-team All-ACC and ACC Tournament MVP this season. She has become a staple with the U.S. National Team and will be a part of the squad that competes at the World Championships this summer. Humphrey was named IWLCA Offensive Player of the Week four times this season and was also last year’s IWLCA Division I Player and Attacker of the Year.
