Liz Reich racked up the first SEC honor of her career Monday afternoon when she was named the Southeastern Conference Offensive Player of the Week.
Reich joined Rebekah Rath as the only other Auburn athlete to win this award marking the first time in program history the Tigers have had multiple players win this award in the same season.
In a win against Georgia, the Portland transfer tallied 11 kills on 27 attempts. Reich accounted for three errors giving her a .296 hitting percentage.
Against Georgia in the series finale, Reich left Athens with a season high for kills in a conference match with 12. Reich did this on 22 attempts giving her a .409 hitting percentage.
Among the two games against the Bulldogs, Reich averaged 3.83 kills per set and 4.50 points per set as the Tigers went 1-1 over the weekend.
