The triumvirate helped lead the Lady Cubs to a 21-13 mark.

All three excelled in multiple facets on the court.

Dangerfield was second in kills with 79, while compiling a team-leading 71 digs. She had 11 aces and two blocks on the court.

Murrow had a team-high 174 assists, while ranking third in kills with 67. She was second in blocks with 18, and had 20 service aces.

Humboldt’s season came to an end Oct. 24 in the semifinals of the Class 2A Substate Tournament, where the Lady Cubs were eliminated by eventual Substate champion Pittsburg-St. Mary’s Colgan.

Humboldt was the only school to have three players earn all-league recognition.
