Sophomores Kelly Donatucci and Mikayla Clark each received postseason accolades Friday as announced by the California Community College Women's Volleyball Coaches' Association.

Donatucci was named an American Volleyball Coaches' Association Second-Team All American for two-year colleges and Clark earned a spot on the California Community College Women's Volleyball All-Southern California Team.

It was Donatucci's first selection as an All-American after earning All-Region honors as a freshman. Clark received her first career recognition on the All-State/Region team.

Donatucci has been the Warriors anchor on defense all year as the libero has accumulated 536 digs in 26 matches so far this season. She ranks third in Southern California and sixth in the state in digs. She has averaged 5.58 digs per set and has had three matches with 30-plus digs to date. She has also posted at least 20 digs 13 times on the year.

On the other side, Clark has been the Warriors' go-to player on offense this season. She leads the team with 449 kills in 26 matches, a mark which ranks third in the state. She's averaging 4.68 kills per set while also adding 285 digs on the year with a 2.97 digs per set average. Clark tallied 16 double-doubles during the regular season including two 20-20 games for the Warriors. She's recorded 20-plus kills in a match five times this year.

The Warriors claimed the South Coast Conference title in 2019 and have drawn the No. 4 seed in the CCCAA SoCal Regional Playoffs. They open the postseason on Tuesday when they host No. 13 Fullerton at the ECC South Gym at 6 p.m.
