Allycia Harris were voted to the All-Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) West Second-Team on Friday afternoon.
Gilliard received the honor following her first season as a starter, while Harris repeated as a second-team selection. The Vulcans have boasted multiple selections on the All-PSAC West Teams in each of the last four years.
A 5-foot-9 senior, Gilliard led the team in scoring with 13.6 points per game after entering the year with 157 career points. She ranked among the top 10 in the league both 2.04 three-pointers made per game and a .314 three-point field-goal percentage (55-of-175). Gilliard also sat third in the PSAC with 2.59 steals per game while playing a team-high 33.78 minutes per game.
A native of Wilkes-Barre, Harris ranked third on the team in scoring with 10.6 points per game while eclipsing 1,000 career points this season. She finished sixth in the league with 8.7 rebounds per game behind a PSAC-best 5.2 offensive rebounds per game, which is fifth-best in NCAA Division II this year. Harris, who was the 2023 PSAC West Defensive Athlete of the Year, reached the 1,000-career rebound milestone earlier this week in the opening round of the PSAC Tournament.
