TOWSON, Md. --- Moravian College junior middle blocker Taylor Kornmann has been honored as the Landmark Conference Women's Volleyball Athlete of the Week for her performance last week.
Kornmann helped the Greyhounds to a 3-0 week to end the regular season at 18-15 overall. She averaged 3.62 kills per set and had a .361 hitting percentage for the week. In 13 sets, Kornmann had 47 kills and just 12 errors in 97 total attempts, and she added 10 blocks, 13 digs and five service aces.
With her 19 kills in a 3-2 win at Wilkes last Saturday morning, Kornmann became the tenth player in school history to reach 1,000 career kills, now with 1,014 in her career, and she also ranks eighth in school history with a .256 hitting percentage and ninth with 228 career blocks.
"Taylor has really raised her level of play both offensively and defensively during the second half of the season," commented Head Coach Shelley Bauder. "She has become a dominant force at the net with the ability to get a kill not just in the middle but from either pin as well. I'm very excited that she was able to earn her 1,000th kill in her junior year and join the ranks as one of the top hitters in Moravian history."
Moravian has declared for the 2015 ECAC Division III South Championship Tournament and will find out on Monday, November 9 if the Blue and Grey have been selected to the tournament.
