TOLEDO, Ohio - Senior Meghan Mohr was named to the MAC All-Tournament team after terminating a tournament high 58 kills and posting the second best kill average with 4.83 kills per set, only behind Ohio's Ellen Herman. Mohr clipped a .390 at the MAC Tournament, the second best hitting percentage of any player on a team finishing in the top four of the tournament.
Mohr, finished in the top 10 of three different statistical categories, the only player in the MAC Tournament to do so. She finished second in kills with 58 kills averaging 4.83 kills per set, sixth in hitting percentage with a .390 and eighth in service aces with five averaging 0.42 per set.
During the tournament Mohr posted three consecutive matches of double-digit kills, including back-to-back double-doubles against Buffalo (Nov. 18) and Central Michigan (Nov. 21).
She started off the tournament leading the Falcons to a 3-1 victory over Buffalo with a match high 18 kills and only two errors to hit a .471 and 10 assists. Mohr and the Falcons then moved on to Central Michigan where she picked up her second straight double-double with 19 kills posting a .359 hitting percentage and 11 digs. Despite the Falcons' loss in the MAC Tournament semifinals to the 2008 regular season champions, Western Michigan, Mohr had another outstanding performance with a match high 21 kills and a .356 hitting percentage.
"Meghan's performance throughout the tournament was amazing," said head coach Denise Van De Walle. "She ended up being one of the hottest hitters in the conference hitting .390 and averaging 4.83 kills per game, second behind the MAC Player of the Year-Ellen Herman's 5.0. Those are incredible numbers. She ended her senior season on such a high note getting 21 kills in her final match against Western Michigan. We all thought Meghan should have been a first team All-MAC player. I believe she showed throughout this tournament that she really is."
