MADSION, Wis. — Wisconsin still hasn’t achieved its ultimate goal this season, but some of its stars are being honored.

Senior Dana Rettke highlighted awards season for the Badgers by becoming the 6th player ever to be named a four-time first-team AVCA All-American. Rettke was joined by two other three-time AVCA All-Americans: Kentucky Setter Madison Lilley and Minnesota Outside Hitter Stephanie Samedy.

Senior setter Sydney Hilley joined her Badger teammate on the first team for the second year in a row.

Other Badgers being named to All-American teams included Lauren Barnes (second) and Devyn Robinson (third). Both Molly Haggerty and Grace Loberg earned honorable mentions.

No. 1 Wisconsin looks to head back to the national championship for the second straight season, which will be accomplished with a win in the Final Four over No. 4 Texas on Thursday.
