This comes just a day after she was tabbed as the SEC Player of the Week
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – For her performance in the series sweep over Mississippi State, freshman setter Alexis Stucky was named this week’s GameChanger/AVCA Division I Player of the Week, as the organization announced Tuesday afternoon.
This is the first such honor of Stucky’s career and comes off the heels of her earning both SEC Player of the Week and SEC Setter of the week accolades.
The Laramie, Wy. native becomes just the fourth Florida freshman to earn the distinction, joining the ranks of Rhamat Alhassan (2014), Kelly Murphy (2008) and Elyse Cusak (2006).
Over the course of the two matches, Stucky put together a stellar performance, leading the team to a combined .329 clip while averaging 13.33 assists per set.
The rookie dished out 36 assists and helped the team to a .310 hitting efficiency in Friday’s matchup against the Bulldogs. She paired that effort with two digs and two blocks to help Florida earn the sweep.
In the Saturday matchup against Mississippi State, she registered 44 assists and led the team to a .347 clip en route to the victory. The 44 assists were a three-set best for the freshman setter and she also tallied eight digs and three kills on the night.
Stucky and the rest of the Gators are back in action on Wednesday when the Georgia Bulldogs visit Exactech Arena. First serve is slated for 7 p.m. on SEC Network +.
