News release from Texas A&M Athletics:
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Texas A&M volleyball’s Maddie Waak was named SEC Setter of the Week for the first time in her career following the Aggies’ opening weekend of action, the league announced Monday afternoon.
Waak made her first appearances for the Maroon & White at the Jaguar invitational, following her transfer from LSU in January. The junior orchestrated the Aggie offense to an efficient weekend, as the team hit .340 percent over the two matches.
In the season opener versus South Alabama, Waak logged 36 assists in the three-set match, while adding seven digs and a kill. The next day, she continued to spread the rock against McNeese with 49 assists which was two shy of her career high. In the match versus the Cowgirls, Waak helped three members of the team reach double-digit kills.
Waak and the Aggies return to action today, as they face A&M-Corpus Christi in Reed Arena with first serve set for 4 p.m.
