Named to the All-Ohio Athletic Conference First Team for the second straight year this season, Wagner led the team with a .336 hitting percentage and 360 kills and ranked third on the team with 71 blocks.

She led the OAC in hitting percentage, ranked second in kills per set (3.46), fourth in total kills and 11th in blocks.

In three seasons at ONU, Wagner has 799 kills, 170 blocks and 119 digs, and her .307 hitting percentage is seventh-best in program history.

The Polar Bears posted a 17-10 record in 2023, finishing tied for fourth in the OAC with a 5-4 mark under first-year head coach Sophie Windover.
