ATLANTA, Ga. – Jacksonville State volleyball's Lena Kindermann has been named the ASUN Conference Co-Player of the Week, along with Kennesaw State's Emma Schurfranz, the league office announced on Monday.
Â
Kindermann, a 6-2 senior from Germany, started all six sets for the Gamecocks this week and recorded 31 total kills.
Â
The outside hitter led the Gamecocks offense on a weekend that included back-to-back sweeps, averaging 5.17 kills per set. In addition, Kindermann hit .464 during the home strech.Â
Against Lipscomb on Friday, Kindermann led JSU with 18 kills while hitting .424 for the match, helping vault the Gamecocks ahead of the Bisons in the ASUN standings.
In Saturday's sweep over Central Arkansas, she added 13 kills while hitting .522.
The Gamecocks are currently on a six-game win-streak and sit in first place of the ASUN West Division standings and are just one spot behind Florida Gulf Coast in the overall standings with a 7-1 league record.
Kindermann ranks fourth overall in the ASUN with a .356 hitting percentage on the season and leads the league in hitting percentage amongst players with 500 or more total attacks. Additionally, she is second in kills per set (3.17) and third in kills (256).
Jax State, 16-4 overall and 7-1 in the ASUN, will continue conference play this week, in the second ASUN Crossover event of the season. The Gamecocks will take on Jacksonville (Friday, 5 p.m.), Liberty (Saturday, 5 p.m.) and Florida Gulf Coast (Sunday, 5 p.m.)
The honor marks Kindermann's first career ASUN Player of the Week award and is the second of the season for the Gamecocks. Lexie Libs earned the award earlier in the week. In addition, Erin Carmichael was named Defensive Player of the Week two weeks ago and Freshman Brooklyn Schiffli was named the Freshman of the Week earlier in the year.Â
