The AVCA Best & Brightest Award is an award meant to honor individual high school Senior student-athletes who excel on and off the court. To be eligible for the Best and Brightest Award, senior student-athletes must have earned at least a 3.5 unweighted GPA on a 4.0 scale (or the equivalent, if using a different GPA scale) during their junior year and play in 50% of their varsity team’s sets during their senior season.
To be named to the Best and Brightest First Team, student-athletes must have earned a 3.8 Unweighted GPA/4.3 Weighted GPA or above. Darlington is tied with one other school in the state of Georgia for having the most student-athletes named to the First Team.
