Piscataway N.J.- Katie Turner and Alyssa Wissinger were named All-Tournament Team at the Rutgers Tournament over the weekend. 

FIU wrapped up non-conference play at Rutgers University and played three matches in two days. They dropped the first contest against Princeton but bounced back to win against Rutgers Saturday night and then Fairleigh Dickinson Sunday morning. 

Alyssa Wissinger finished with 21 kills combined from the three matches. She was competing on both sides and she also recorded 11 blocks. Her most impressive game came in the tournament finale against Fairleigh Dickinson. She was fourth on the team with seven kills but what really stood out were her seven blocks against the Knights.

Katie Turner started all three matches just like Wissinger. She continues to add to her team-leading digs total. After recording 45 digs at the Rutgers Tournament, Turner now sits at 201 for the season. She also chipped in offensively with five service aces. She recorded three of them against Rutgers and holds the team lead with 16 service aces so far this year.
