Volleyball sophomore Mariena Hayden earns honor the fifth time this year
LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) -Â UNLV volleyball sophomore Mariena Hayden has been named the Outstanding Rebel of the Week, the school announced Wednesday. This is the second straight week Hayden and a record fifth time this year she's earned the honor.
The award goes to the student-athlete who turned in the best individual performance during the previous week of competition from Monday through Sunday as voted on by the UNLV Athletic Communications department.
Hayden, an outside hitter from Belle Plaine, Minnesota, guided UNLV to the semifinals of the National Invitational Volleyball Championships with a 3-1 win at Portland Thursday night in the quarterfinals before the Rebels ended their season with a 3-1 loss at Iowa State Saturday. In the two matches, Hayden led the Rebels in kills (28), kills per set (3.50), aces (13), aces per set (1.62), digs (38), digs per set (4.75), and added six total blocks (one solo/five assisted). She also turned in double-doubles in both matches.
In the win against Portland, the sophomore combined 18 kills with 20 digs and chipped in five aces, four total blocks (all assisted) and one assist. Hayden was stellar despite the loss at Iowa State, registering 10 kills and 18 digs for a double-double to go along with eight aces and two total blocks (one solo/one assisted).
UNLV volleyball finished it first season under Dawn Sullivan with a 22-12 record overall and a 10-8 mark in Mountain West play.
