Fowle, Li and Skrutski earn end of year honors

[Scott Zanni]

Congratulations to three Magruder varsity girls volleyball players for winning end of the season awards.

Senior outside hitter Michelle Fowle was named the Montgomery County Player of the Year by both the Washington Post and Gazette. The Post also named her as one of the top 9 volleyball players in the Washington DC area by awarding her 1st team All-Met honors. Michelle is only the Magruder volleyball player to be named County Player of the Year (Rachel Dougherty is the other).

Junior setter Xiaoyi Li was named first team All-County by the Gazette and honorable mention All-Met by the Washington Post. She becomes only the 2nd junior in Magruder volleyball history to be named to an All-Met team (Kimery Musser is the other).

Senior middle hitter Brittany Skrutski was named 1st team All-County by the Washington Post and earned Honorable Mention All-County honors from the Gazette.

Congratulations to Michelle, Xiaoyi and Brittany!

For some reason the Post puts all of their All-County teams in the Thursday Extra section. It ran this morning with all the other fall sports.
