Christi Hahn of Texas A&M has been selected the Sports Imports/AVCA Division I National Player of the Week, as well as the Big 12 Volleyball Player of the Week.
The junior middle blocker from Leander, Texas, received the honors for the first time in her career after posting back-to-back career-setting performances while leading A&M to crucial five-game victories against both Kansas and No. 24 Colorado.
Hahn set career highs in kills and hitting percentage against the Jayhawks on Nov. 16, recording 21 kills and only one error in 38 attempts for a .526 efficiency. She also paced the team in blocks with five.
Hahn bettered her kill record with 23 while hitting at a .514 clip to help lead A&M to a victory at Colorado on Nov. 19. Hahn also added six blocks in the win.
For the week, Hahn averaged 5.20 points, 4.4 kills, 1.1 blocks and hit .520. She leads the Aggies with a .319 hitting percentage for the full season and is second on the team with 2.79 kills, 0.87 blocks and 3.55 points per game.
Hahn is the second Aggie to receive the national honor as Laura Jones earned the honor on Oct. 18, 2004.
Hahn and the Aggies (14-12, 7-10 big 12) have a busy final week of the regular season, hosting Texas Tech tonight at 6 p.m. and Iowa State Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. They conclude the regular season Saturday at No. 11 Missouri.
