For the fourth time this season, an Omaha Supernovas player has earned weekly accolades from the league. On the heels of two straight victories, setter Natalia Valentin-Anderson has been chosen the Pro Volleyball Federation Player of the Week presented by Franklin Sports. The four weekly honors for Omaha this season have been captured by four different players on the roster.
The setter was inserted into the lineup and helped the Supernovas lock up the No. 2 seed in the upcoming Pro Volleyball Federation Championship. Making her first start since April 13, she dished out 55 assists to go along with 17 digs, two aces, one block and one kill in a four-set victory over Columbus.
The native of Caguas, Puerto Rico then led Omaha to a sweep of Vegas on Monday, finishing with 31 assists, 15 digs and one kill. The veteran also excelled on the defensive end, making a diving save off the side court before running to the other side to produce a block touch and then make an incredible diving save to keep the point alive. For her efforts, she was featured in the No. 2 spot of the daily Top 10 plays on ESPN’s SportsCenter.
The Pro Volleyball Federation Championship will take place next week at the CHI Health Center in Omaha. Tickets are on sale now and fans can purchase tickets for all sessions, the semifinals only or the championship match on Saturday.
