Junior middle hitter Kim Linger has received the Northern Athletics Conference Student-Athlete of the Week award in women's volleyball for the week of Oct. 20-26, the league announced late Monday.
In a 3-0 (25-19, 25-11, 25-13) Lakeland victory over MSOE
last Friday night, Linger entered the school record books. Her 16 kills in 21 attacks with no errors calculated to a .762 hitting percentage, the second-highest in a match in Lakeland history when the hitter posted at least 15 attacks.
"Kim came out Friday and corrected probably her worst match of the year on Tuesday with a record-setting night,"Lakeland
The Eldorado native and Laconia High School graduate registered 33 kills with a .418 hitting percentage in a trio of Lakeland victories last week. Her play helped the Muskies wrap up a perfect 12-0 season in NAC action, pushing the team's overall record to 20-8.
As one of the Muskies' featured offensive players, she will be a vital part of the team as it makes its push for an NCAA Tournament berth.
"As a player, Kim has grown each year," Schreiber said. "We've asked her to handle more of the offensive load and she's responded to that and kept herself healthy. She's going to be a big part of what we do going forward from here."
Each week, the league's head coaches nominate a player from their own team to be voted on for each sport by NAC sports information directors.
