BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – After leading the Ole Miss attack and registering career-high kills in both victories against Alabama, outside hitter Vivian Miller was named SEC Freshman of the Week, the conference announced Monday afternoon.
Miller paced the Rebels offensively against the Crimson Tide, averaging 4.13 kills per set on the weekend and hitting at a blistering .338. She tallied 33 kills on 68 attacks with only 10 errors as Ole Miss picked up its first two victories at home in the 2022 season and swept the weekend series against Alabama.
The Jupiter, Florida, native tallied 15 kills in Friday’s win and followed it up with an 18-kill performance while hitting at a career-best .485 clip. Miller also added a career-best 17 digs on Saturday for her second collegiate double-double. Playing all six rotations on the court, Miller was heavily involved in all facets of the game, contributing four blocks and an ace on the weekend.
It is Miller’s first career SEC weekly award, and she is the second Rebel to earn conference honors this season, joining Niesen.
Ole Miss hits the road on Wednesday, October 12, for its lone match of the week at No. 18 Kentucky. The nationally televised match will air on SEC Network at 7 p.m. CT.
