Two Athletes Earn Player of the Week Honors from USA South

Following a performance where she drove home a match-high 15 kills, resulting in a .353 attack percentage, Meredith sophomore outside hitter Reagan Kresho was recognized as USA South Conference Volleyball Player of the Week. The announcement came in a statement from the league office on Monday, September 15.

Kresho becomes the first Meredith player to capture USA South Player of the Week honors this season.

In the lone match of the week for the Avenging Angels, Kresho led her team in kills (15) and hitting percentage (.353), in a 3-0 victory (29-27, 25-16, 25-14) over Roanoke. She also added six digs and two service aces as Meredith conducted its fourth three-set sweep of the season.

Kresho and teammate Caitlyn Russell, who capped off the match with 10 kills, accounted for 25 of Meredith鈥檚 36 team kills versus Roanoke.

Four days after setting a new program record in the 5k, Meredith鈥檚 Delaney Bundy was honored as USA South Conference Cross Country Runner of the week. The announcement came on Monday, September 15, in a formal announcement from the league office.

On Friday, September 12, Bundy not only claimed the individual title at the Pfeiffer Cross Country Invitational, but she established a new program record (18:31.0) along the way. Coincidentally, Bundy became the second Avenging Angel in as many weeks, after Addison Doran, to claim the No. 1 spot among individual runners at an event. Doran accomplished the feat at the Downback Invitational, hosted by Methodist University, on September 5.

Bundy鈥檚 time of 18:31.0 was 57 seconds faster than Anna Conrad (Winthrop), who was second at the Pfeiffer meet. Bundy was one of three Avenging Angel runners to finish inside the Top-10, including Carly O’Toole (9th / 20:21.2) and Juana Silva Jimenez (10th / 20:27.9).

“Delaney had a solid performance at Pfeiffer. It is not the course to run fast on, so the fact that she ran the time she did, and primarily by herself, was a big boost to morale,鈥 said head coach Field Miller. 鈥淚 am looking forward to seeing what she can accomplish this season.”

A total of 15 runners completed the course at the Pfeiffer Cross Country Invitational for Meredith.听
