Congrats to San Diego Mojo middle blocker Ronika Stone who was named to the Pro Volleyball Federation Preseason All-League Team, the league office announced on Monday.
Stone is the first player in organization history to earn preseason recognition. The awards are voted on by the league’s head coaches. The Mojo open the season on the road this Thursday against the Orlando Valkyries.
She was a second-team All-League selection in 2024 after leading the Pro Volleyball Federation in hitting percentage (.336), while ranking seventh in kill percentage (.406), tying for eighth in service aces (13), and finishing ninth in blocks per set (0.53).
A native of San Jose, Stone was one of four players to appear in all 24 regular season matches for the Mojo in 2024 and among three to start each match, leading the team with 96 sets played. She led the team in hitting percentage and aces, ranked second in points (238) and blocks (51), and was third in kills (174) and attempts (429).
Impressive Stats
Stone scored in double-digits in 13 matches, highlighted by a season-high 18-point effort against Orlando on March 11 in which she registered 15 kills and three blocks. Stone tallied at least three blocks in 10 matches, including six against Vegas on April 26, and collected two or more service aces in three matches, one of two Mojo players to accomplish the feat. In San Diego’s PVF Championship semifinal matchup against eventual champion Omaha, she scored eight points on five kills and three blocks while adding two digs.
Overall, four organizations were represented on the Preseason All-League Team with the Atlanta Vibe, Omaha Supernovas and Orlando Valkyries featuring two players each.
