A Vandal is volleyball’s WAC Player of the Week for the second consecutive week, and it’s senior outside hitter Alicia Milo.
This marks the first time she has received the honor in her four years at Idaho. Milo was happy with the award, but more excited about the team’s wins.
“It feels good,” Milo said. “We played a really hard match at Utah (State) and we had a great comeback.”
Milo received the honor for her performance against Utah State Saturday in which her career-high 28 kills propelled Idaho out of a huge deficit to win the match. Milo also had 27 digs in the match, claiming her sixth double-double of the season. Milo said she didn’t realize the night she was having until it was over.
“I was apparently on fire,” Milo said.
“I didn’t even know I had that many kills until the very end. Playing overtime just really gets to you.”
The Vandals conclude the regular season with two road matches, stopping first at Fresno State Thursday and then Nevada Saturday. The WAC tournament begins Nov. 21 in Las Vegas.
