UCLA volleyball star Merrick McHenry keeps raking up awards as he prepares for another championship run
A post shared by Merrick McHenry (@merrickmchenry)Merrick McHenry is delivering quite an encore performance. Fresh off leading the Bruins to their first NCAA men’s volleyball championship in 16 years, the UCLA standout is playing at his best when the matches matter most.
With the NCAA championship starting later this month, McHenry was just named his conference’s offensive player of the week. The redshirt senior registered 15 kills on 19 swings in two wins last week over Stanford, the No.
6-ranked team in the country (a kill is a shot that’s not returnable, leading directly to a point or loss of rally). In addition, McHenry recorded seven blocks in the first affair, tying a season high, and came through with three straight service aces in the second matchup.
