Aug 28, 2017 | Women's Volleyball
Freshman logged 77 digs in three starts last weekend.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – University of Memphis freshman Alyssa Kronberg has been named to the American Athletic Conference Volleyball Weekly Honor Roll, the league office announced Monday.
Kronberg is the first freshman to earn league weekly honor roll recognition since current teammate Mady Ruhlman did so nearly two years ago on Oct. 26, 2015. Kronberg is the third player in program history to be named to The American Volleyball Weekly Honor Roll, as Ruhlman (2015) and Oluchi Agomuo (2014) also received the recognition.
The 5-foot-3 libero started all three matches at the Eastern Illinois Panther Invitational this past weekend. She totaled 77 digs and only had one reception error. Kronberg added 10 assists and two service aces. Her 28 digs versus Green Bay were the most in a four-set match since Aleksandra Petronijevic registered 36 digs at SMU Nov. 5, 2014.
The Palatine, Ill., native leads The American in digs per set at 5.92. Her overall 77 digs are second-most in the conference (Tulane's Kaylie McHugh has 79 total digs).
Memphis returns to action at the Central Arkansas Invitational in Conway, Ark., this weekend. The Tigers face UT Martin (11 a.m.) and host Central Arkansas (7 p.m.) Friday, and then meet Little Rock (10 a.m.) Saturday.
