NEW ORLEANS – A pair of James Madison volleyball players took home weekly honors from the Sun Belt Conference on Tuesday, as outside hitter Kennedy Louisell was named the Offensive Player of the Week, while Julia McNeley was tabbed the Defensive Player of the Week.
Â
Louisell picked up her fifth Offensive Player of the Week Nod of the season, leading the Sun Belt in kills (57) and kills per set (5.70) while breaking her own single-match program record with 38 kills on Saturday. Meanwhile, McNeley led the Sun Belt with 53 digs, which included a career-high 32 digs in Saturday's five-set win.
Â
Louisell's 38 kills came with a career-high 20 digs, as the native of Grand Rapids, Mich., became the only player in Division I Women's Volleyball this season with at least 35 kills and 20 digs in the same match.
Â
McNeley sits at fourth in the Sun Belt in digs (354) and sixth in digs per set (4.12) as of Monday. In conference play, the native of Louisville, Ky., is averaging 4.54 digs per set. Louisell continues to lead the NCAA in kills (455) and is second in kills per set (5.29). The outside hitter's 455 kills put her fifth on the JMU single-season kills list.
Â
Louisell, McNeley, and the Dukes return to action on Thursday, Oct. 30, with a 7 p.m. match at South Alabama.
