Dixon garners KVA all-state honors

LHS sophomore Anna Dixon had a big season for the Lady Cat volleyball team and she has been recognized for it as she was selected to the KVA all-state team.

The season has been over for about a month now, but the accolades are still coming in for the Louisburg volleyball team – in particular – Anna Dixon.

The Louisburg High School sophomore was recently named to the Kansas Volleyball Association all-state second team for her play that helped the Lady Cats to the substate championship game.

Dixon had a monster season for Louisburg as she finished the season with a team-high 502 kills, 241 digs, 163 blocks and 53 aces from her all-around spot. Earlier this month, Dixon, a Kansas State commit, was also awarded first team all-Frontier League honors.
