GREENSBORO, N.C. (theACC.com) – Louisville’s Claire Chaussee earned her third consecutive Atlantic Coast Conference Volleyball Player of the Week award, while Miami’s Naylani Feliciano was selected as the ACC Volleyball Freshman of the Week.
Chaussee led fourth-ranked Louisville with 13 kills in the No. 4 Cards’ sweep of No. 7 Pitt on Senior Night. The Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, native recorded her 20th match with double digit kills and also had three aces and three digs. Chaussee shined in the third set against the Panthers, recording two of her three aces and three of her 13 kills – the final kill securing the match for Louisville.
Feliciano recorded 29 digs for Miami in the Hurricanes’ two-win weekend over Syracuse and Duke. Against the Blue Devils, the Plano, Texas, native tallied 24 digs and an ace in Miami’s five-set victory inside Cameron Indoor Stadium. The freshman added five digs and a block against the Orange. Over the weekend, Feliciano averaged 3.6 digs per set.
Both Louisville and Pitt have a chance to clinch a share of the 2022 ACC Volleyball Championship this week. Louisville would clinch at least a share of the league title with a win over Notre Dame on Wednesday. Pitt must win its last two matches against Georgia Tech (Nov. 23) and Boston College (Nov. 26) to earn a share of the championship. The ACC volleyball champion is determined based on the regular-season record, as there is no ACC volleyball tournament.
