Finn played a big role in Clemson’s upset win over #1 seed Georgia Tech at the ACC Tournament this season. The senior captain had 30 kills in leading Clemson to the 3-1 victory over the undefeated regular season ACC champions. She was named to the All-Tournament team for her efforts.

Ashton, a two-time AVCA All-Region honoree, received honorable mention after leading the Clemson team and posting a top five ACC mark with a .363 hitting percentage this season. In fact, Ashton concluded her collegiate career as Clemson’s record-holder with a .335 career hitting percentage. Ashton was second on the Clemson team this fall with 490 kills. She also had 140 total blocks and was a second-team All-ACC performer this season.
