Kara Cullen was named to the NCAA Division II Women's Volleyball Atlantic Region All-Tournament team after her performance during a 3-1 loss to Wheeling Jesuit in the opening round. She was one of 12 student-athletes named to the team.

Against the Cardinals, Cullen recorded a game-high .417 attack percentage. The junior middle blocker had a team-high 13 kills and four blocks while recording only three errors in 24 attempts. It was her 12th double-digit kill performance of the season.

Cullen finished the season averaging 2.53 kills per set with a .324 hitting percentage. She finished first on the team in total blocks (103) and third in kills (243).
