SAN FRANCISCO -ย Senior Jennie Frager was named Pac-12 Conference Offensive Player of the Week for the first time in her career on Monday after helping the Bruins to a 3-0 record at the LMU Invitational last weekend.
Frager had 28 kills and just one error in 48 attempts in the three victories for a .562 hitting percentage, adding 16 blocks. On Saturday morning versus Illinois State, she set career highs in kills and hitting, recording 14 kills and no errors in 19 attempts for a .737 hitting percentage. She also had four blocks in the match. It was Frager's first of two error-free matches on Saturday, as she also tallied eight kills and no miscues in 19 swings (.421 percentage) at #21 Loyola Marymount. In 2 1/2 sets in the season opener against Niagara on Friday, the senior had six kills and only one error in 10 attempts for a .500 percentage. Along with all of her offensive plaudits, of Frager's 16 blocks, 10 came against LMU, which was a personal best. It marked the first time a Bruin reached double figures in blocks in a match since 2012.
Since 2011, when the conference started handing out Offensive, Defensive and Freshman of the Week honors, UCLA has won 10 Offensive, five Defensive and four Freshman awards.
The Bruins, who moved up to eighth in this week's AVCA Coaches Poll, head to Honolulu this week for the Hawaiian Airlines Rainbow Wahine Classic. First up is a matchup on Thursday against Pacific at 7:45 p.m. PT.
