Lauren Brand, psychology junior and volleyball outside hitter, was named Kentwood Springs Water Athlete of the Week. Brand had two strong performances on the court in the team’s opening conference games this past weekend. With nine kills, eight digs and four block assists, she helped seal their victory against Faulkner in Montgomery, Ala. The following day, despite a loss to Brenau University, Brand reached a career high with 12 kills.
Head Coach Margot Frederick is excited for not only that the progress Brand has made, but believes she is going to continue to develop.
That progress might have to wait a few weeks as she recovers from an ankle injury sustained at a recent practice.
