Louisiana Tech’s middle blocker, Rori Gray, was named Conference USA Freshman of the Week, announced by the league on Monday.
Gray helped the Bulldogs to two wins at the Fullerton Invitational over the weekend, giving Tech their best start since 2019 when they started 3-0.
The Washington D.C. native started to make an impact in the Bulldog’s four-set win over Cal State Fullerton on Friday. She finished second on the team with 11 kills on a .455 hitting clip while adding two blocks.
She was instrumental in LA Tech’s sweep of Fullerton on Saturday by igniting a 26-11 run that spanned the second and third sets. Gray would finish with nine kills and four blocks, again finishing with a hitting percentage over .400 at .444.
Louisiana Tech’s home opener is tonight against Alcorn. The first serve is set for 6:30 p.m. CT.
