STATESBORO - Georgia Southern freshman middle blocker Alex Myers has been named the Sun Belt Conference Volleyball Offensive Player of the Week, announced today by league officials.
Myers earns her first career weekly honor for the Eagles as she was pivotal in Georgia Southern's pair of wins over App State last week. On Thursday, in the Eagles' come-from-behind 3-2 win over the Mountaineers, she hit .308 with 10 kills and seven blocks - and with the Mountaineers leading 14-11 in the fifth set, had a block to earn a side out, then served four straight points as the Eagles completed the 16-14 fifth-set win to earn the victory.
