The Desert Valley League volleyball title belonged to the undefeated Indio Rajahs this season, but the top in-league postseason awards were not confined to the league champs.

The DVL coaches revealed the all-league volleyball team and the offensive MVP honor went to the Coachella Valley Arabs talented junior Leslie Delgado. The league's defensive MVP honor went to Twentynine Palms stalwart Jenica Silvas, also just a junior.

The Rajahs were rewarded for the undefeated season when it came to the all-DVL first team as three Rajahs made the squad.

Seniors Joselin Martinez and Brianna Fabian made the team along with junior Allie Urquidies.

Joining Delgado on the first team for the Arabs were senior Sihara Duran and junior Savannah Rivera.

Twentynine Palms also had three first-teamers as senior Kyla Palpallatoc and junior Lindie Stewart made the squad.

Here is the full All-DVL volleyball team, including first-team, second-team and honorable mention.
