Volleyball's Best
A pair of specialists named Athletes of the Week following Week 11
The PACWEST is pleased to announce the Week 11 volleyball Athletes of the Week following an exciting weekend of action.
Female Volleyball Athlete of the Week
Megan Clark – COTR Avalanche
Megan Clark was extremely stable in her service reception, allowing the Avalanche offence to stay in system for the majority of the match. Her team leading 13 digs was a big reason the Avs were able to solidify the 3-0 victory on Friday night. She followed up her stellar performance on Saturday afternoon by again leading the team in the defence category with nine digs. She also added three assists in another 3-0 win against CBC. The fourth year libero played in all six sets in the weekend sweep and picked up 22 digs and six assists.
Male Volleyball Athlete of the Week
Simon Friesen – Capilano Blues
The fifth-year Blues captain racked up a massive 87 assists in a pair of five-set matches on the road against the Camosun Chargers. Friesen had 46 assists in Friday’s come-from-behind 3-2 win as he set up eight different players for kills while adding one himself. He added an ace and a pair of digs on Friday as well. In Saturday’s match, the Abbotsford native again topped the 40-assist mark getting two different teammates into double-digit kills.
