McDonald County High School volleyball player Kaycee Factor has been named to the first team of the Missouri High School Volleyball Coaches Associatio­n Class 4 All-State Team, making her the first player from McDonald County High School to be named to the volleyball all-state team.

While most attention in volleyball is focused on the hitters, Factor is a four-year starter at libero where her digs and passing keyed the Lady Mustangs this year to their first 20-win season since 2006.

“Kaycee being selected to the all-state team is truly a testament to the passion and dedication she has for the sport of volleyball,” said coach Logan Grab. “She is an elite defensive volleyball athlete and that was evidenced through her performanc­es and stats during the 2020 season. While she had an exceptiona­l season, this award is a culminatio­n of the many years Kaycee has committed to the craft of volleyball. Her work ethic, willingnes­s to always be coachable and desire to be the best teammate she can be have been gateways to her success. It has been a privilege and honor being Kaycee’s coach for the past three years and McDonald County High School is fortunate to have such a wonderful young lady representi­ng it at the state level.”

Factor earned first team all-conference and all-district honors this year as well after being named first team all-conference last year.

As a senior, Factor had 561 digs with a serve receive percentage of 91%.
