Elkins, W.Va. – Next on our list for Senior Spotlight week is another transfer from Otero Junior College, Maria Isabel Butruce- Candiota, she graduated with a degree in Psychology. For 2022, Butruce- Candiota finished the spring and fall semesters on the Dean's Honors List. Not only does she have academic accolades, she has her name in eight of the different categories for the D&E Volleyball Records. She finished her overall college career with 596 kills, 317 digs, and earned 715 points. At D&E she had 544 kills which puts her at 9th in total kills and 6th in kills per set (2.48). She also sits at 10th for total attacks (1,577), 12th for attack percent (.155), 11th for total points (634.5), and in 5th for points per set (2.90). Butruce- Candiota was not only great from the front line she also pushed points from the service line for team. She sits tied at 6th and 10th place for aces per set and total aces. Coach Willis says, "Maria was great for our team. Though small, she packed a powerful punch and bust of energy on the floor. She continuously improved every year on her hitting percentage. With her in the top 15 of the records books in 8 total categories, it just proves how valuable she was to our team. Her energy, aggressiveness, and momentum created from the service line will be missed."
