Region 15 Announces All-Region Volleyball Team and Major Award Winners

NEW YORK - Region 15 is pleased to announce the 2025 All-Region Division III Women's Volleyball selections and major award winners.

Monroe University - Bronx's Cherlialix Carmona was named the Region 15 Player of the Year. Juun Shin of Fashion Institute of Technology was voted as the Region 15 Setter of the Year. Aleishka Diaz, of the Express, earned Region 15 Defensive Player of the Year honors. Philip Toscano, head coach of the Region 15 Champion Westchester Community College, was selected as the Region 15 Coach of the Year.

The voting was done by all the head women's volleyball coaches in the region.

Carmona tallied 319 kills and 205 digs during the year to help Monroe capture the North Atlantic B District Championship. She nailed at least 20 putdowns three times this season, and at least 18 kills seven times. Carmona eclipsed double digits in defensive bumps during eight matches this year. The sophomore outside hitter generated a hitting percentage of .268 in 2025.

Shin made a big impact for the second-seeded Tigers during her freshman year. She registered 509 assists and averaged 7.17 providers per set. Shin produced 40 assists in a match twice this season and at least 30 assists in six contests. 

Diaz has anchored the defense for Monroe this year with 449 digs. She generated 5.10 defensive bumps per set. She produced at least 20 digs in a match 12 times this year, including a 31-dig effort at Bergen County Community College back on September 17. 

Toscano coached the Vikings to a historic season as they went on a run to capture the Region 15 and North Atlantic A District Championships as the No. 4-seed in the region. Westchester, along with Monroe – Bronx, will be competing in the NJCAA Division III Women's Volleyball National Tournament in Cedar Rapids, Iowa from November 13 until November 15.
