One of the most recent graduates to be tapped for the 2019 CCAA Hall of Fame class, Cal State San Bernardino's Samantha Middleborn enjoyed a fruitful career on the hardwood for the Coyotes' volleyball squad. Two-time AVCA Player of the Year in 2010 and '11, Middleborn swung and blocked her way to acclaim on both the conference and national stage.

Along with national Player of the Year acclaim, Middleborn was thrice-named AVCA All-American and All-Region as well as claiming CCAA Player of the Year in '10 and '11.

During her time at Cal State San Bernardino, the Coyotes were four-time CCAA champions, four-time NCAA West Region champion, three-time NCAA semifinalists and the team was NCAA runners-up on two occasions. During her time on the court, Cal State San Bernardino compiled an impressive 123-10 record. In Middleborn's 2011 season, the Coyotes enjoyed an unblemished conference record of 22-0 with the season's only defeat coming in the NCAA Division II Championship match.

She owns an abundance of school records, including the single-match leader in hitting percentage (.900), season leader in hitting percentage (.480), and career leader in hitting percentage (.424). Her 48.0 percent hitting in 2010 as well as 148 assisted blocks in 2011 also stand as CCAA benchmarks.

Middleborn currently plays professionally in Italy's premier league with Chieri, after stints abroad in France, Switzerland and South Korea.
