Riverhead senior Megan Conroy and sophomore Joscelin Morrow were honored as all-league players for their performance during the 2012 volleyball season.

Morrow was also also selected as the League IV Rookie of the Year.

Morrow helped anchor the Blue Waves’ defense playing libero. She was a key player on serve receives, but also was talented enough to contribute in a number of other ways, including hitting from the back row.

Conroy was a versatile middle hitter whom the Blue Waves relied on to deliver big hits at the net. She was one of four seniors for Riverhead.

The Blue Waves finished the season 5-8 overall. Their final match of the season was cancelled after Hurricane Sandy disrupted more than a week’s worth of games across the county.

Conroy said after the final home match that she was looking into playing volleyball in college.
