BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – A day after being named the SEC Scholar-Athlete of the Year and garnering a spot on the 2022 All-SEC Team, senior Morgahn Fingall has picked up SEC Player and Offensive Player of the Week honors, the conference office announced Monday.
Guiding Tennessee past Alabama over the Thanksgiving holiday and into the 2022 NCAA Volleyball Tournament, Fingall averaged 6.00 kills per set, 1.00 ace per set, 2.00 digs per set and 7.57 points per set.

It is Fingall’s fourth offensive player of the week award this season and her third player of the week honor. The Fairfax, Virginia, native has been tabbed offensive player of the week five times in her career.
