LEXINGTON, Ky. - The American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) announced the 2025 AVCA Division III All-Region teams and Gallaudet University earned three Region IV honors. Junior outside hitter Brielle Worley (Amarillo, Texas) makes her second straight appearance on the first team while senior setter Ella Gamble (Cullowhee, N.C.) and junior opposite Jada Zarembka (Riverside, Calif.) were selected as honorable mention.
This is the latest of a number of honors that have been bestowed upon Worley Gamble and Zarembka this season.
Worley, the two-time United East Player of the Year, earns her second consecutive AVCA All-Region first team honor. Worley is first in NCAA Division III for points (580.5), second in kills (509), fourth in kills per set (4.85), points per set (5.53), 15th in attacks per set (11.44) and 17th in total attacks (1,201). Worley received her second straight United East all-conference first team honor on Monday.
Gamble picks up a third AVCA All-Region honor during her time with Gallaudet. Gamble was named to the first team last year (2024) and honorable mention in 2023, her first with the Bison. Gamble, a three-time United East all-conference first team selection, leads NCAA Division III in service aces (109) and aces per set (1.04) for a second straight year. Gamble is eighth in assists per set (10.49) and 12th in total assists (1,101).
Zarembka makes her first appearance on the AVCA All-Region team as a honorable mention selection. The 2025 United East all-conference first team honoree is second in the conference for total blocks (61) and finished the season with 290 kills, 194 digs and 34 service aces.
The GU trio are the only players from the United East on any of the AVCA all-region teams. This is Gallaudet's 36th all-region honor since 1986.
