written by Dave Parsons, Sports Information Director

MOUNT VERNON, Ohio (10-1-2008) - Jackie Albrecht, a member of the Mount Vernon Nazarene University women’s volleyball team, was recently selected as the American Mideast Conference Player of the Week for her performance during the week of September 22-28.

Albrecht, a sophomore middle hitter from Lexington, Ohio, led the Lady Cougars to a 3-2 record for the week as she averaged 3.95 kills, 3.00 digs, and 0.90 blocks per game. The former Mansfield Christian School star had three matches with 20 or more kills including a career-high 25 kills in a five-set loss to unbeaten Shawnee State University. She also reached double figures in digs in four of the five matches with a high of 17 coming in the match against Shawnee State.

On the season, Albrecht leads the team in kills (340) and digs (315) and is second in blocks (79) while also ranking second in the AMC in kills per game (3.82). She has also compiled 12 assists, 25 aces, a .940 serve reception percentage, and a .964 serving percentage. In less than two complete seasons, Albrecht has already compiled 744 career kills and 706 career digs in just 234 career games.

MVNU is currently 17-6 overall and 3-2 in the AMC. The Lady Cougars, who received votes in the latest NAIA poll, will return to action on Friday when the team will travel to Houghton (N.Y.) College for a conference match that will begin at 4:00 p.m.
