Avery Hobson Named Offensive Player of the Week, Cecily Waynar Tabbed Defensive Player of the Week
BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – Two Falcons were named to the Mid-American Conference (MAC) volleyball weekly awards, the conference office announced Monday.
Senior Avery Hobson was named the Offensive Player of the Week and Cecily Waynar was named the Defensive Player of the Week following two victories over Central Michigan inside the Stroh Center this past weekend.
Hobson recorded 29 kills over seven sets to average 4.14 per frame. The Fishers, Ind. Native exploded for 18 kills on 36 attempts to hit at a .333 efficiency in Friday's four-set win before adding 11 more on 23 swings to finish at a .391-clip in Saturday's sweep over the Chippewas.
Waynar amassed 13 blocks with three solo blocks and 10 block assists in the Falcons' pair of victories. The Amherst, Ohio native got up for seven block assists on Friday, tying her career-high for the fourth time this season. She followed with three solo blocks and three block assists in Saturday's contest. Waynar recorded six-or-more total blocks for the eighth time this year.
Bowling Green returns to action on Friday and Saturday, Oct. 30-31 at Ball State. First serve on Friday is slated for 6 p.m. inside Worthen Arena and Saturday's clash is scheduled for a 3 p.m. start.
