Fresno State's Addison Haluska named All Mountain West, leads conference

Fresno State announced on November 25 that senior outside hitter Addison Haluska earned postseason recognition with a spot on the All Mountain West team after a season in which she led the conference in total kills and kills per set. Haluska closed the regular season with 428 kills, a number the athletics department described as program leading for the year and one that underpinned her third All Conference honor in four seasons.

The honors reflect both a high volume of production and sustained career success. University release materials note that Haluska’s career totals place her among Fresno State’s all time leaders, a statistical trajectory that combines seasonal peak performance with durable contribution across multiple years. The school also highlighted her leadership on Senior Day and her role in the locker room throughout the season, noting coach and team comments celebrating those contributions.

For Fresno County the recognition carries several local implications. On the court the award elevates the program’s regional profile, which can help recruiting efforts and fan engagement. Higher visibility typically translates into stronger ticket demand and greater community support during conference and postseason play. For young players in Fresno County, Haluska’s progression from local prospect to conference standout provides a tangible example of a pathway to Division I success.

From a statistical and program management perspective, leading the Mountain West in both total kills and kills per set signals an efficient high usage role paired with consistent production. That combination is attractive to coaches building offensive systems and to scouts evaluating post collegiate opportunities, and it frames Haluska as a central figure in Fresno State’s recent competitive identity.

The All Mountain West honor caps a regular season that confirmed Haluska’s status as one of the program’s premier performers. As the team moves into postseason play and into offseason recruiting and development cycles, her achievements will be a measurable asset for the program and a point of pride for the Fresno community.
