Rogoz set numerous records for the Leopards in her career and capped her status as the all-time points (1,584) and all-time kills (1,345) leader, both established this year. She became the only Wentworth women's volleyball player to book 1,000 kills and 1,000 digs, and additionally ranks second in the record books with 1,332 digs.
