Kentucky Volleyball is well into its preseason, gearing up for this upcoming fall season. With August just right around the corner, the Southeastern Conference named its 2024 preseason team, which features three of Kentucky’s own.

Senior setter Emma Grome, senior libero Eleanor Beavin, and sophomore outside hitter Brooklyn Deleye were all named to the All-SEC team on Wednesday, chosen by all of the league’s head coaches.

This marks the third year in a row that Grome and Beavin were named to the preseason team, joined by Deleye, an underclassman who is making waves in the conference and on the international stage. This is the ninth straight year that Kentucky has had multiple players named to the All-SEC Preseason team.
