UCF captain Jalé Hervey clears 1,000-hit milestone for surging Knights
Jalé Hervey During the second set of a 3-2 victory over Central Michigan on Sept. 17, 5-foot-11 senior outside hitter Jalé Hervey joined an elite group.
She became player the 11th player in UCF history to record 1,000 kills and she started dancing the Nae Nae in the middle of the court at The Venue for everyone to see after learning the news.
The public address announcer alerted the crowd the senior captain became the first Knight to reach the milestone since 2014's Delaina Sarden, and ninth-year UCF head coach Todd Dagenais's only thought was to yell across the court, "Throw me the ball." He planned to give Hervey the ball she got the kill, embroidering her name on it.
