COLUMBIA, Mo. – Mizzou Volleyball sophomore OH Leketor Member-Meneh (St. Louis, Mo.) was named Week Five Southeastern Conference Offensive Player of the Week, announced Monday by the league office.

"Leketor had a great week for us," Mizzou Volleyball head coach Wayne Kreklow said. "She has always been a very physical attacker, but is becoming a better volleyball player and it's making a world of difference for her and our team. She has really bought into the process and it's paying off for her."

The honor marks Member-Meneh's first career weekly award by the SEC office. The Tiger outside hitter was sensational in Mizzou's opening week of SEC play, as the team went 2-0 with a sweep over No. 25 Alabama and a road victory at Arkansas.

Member-Meneh was one of the Tigers' most reliable offensive options this past week, as she tallied 31 kills on .343 hitting and 4.57 points per set. Her 4.43 kills per set ranks second-best in the SEC in conference only matchups, while her 4.57 points per set ranks fourth.

The high-flying Tiger outside hitter posted 15-plus kills in both matches against the Crimson Tide and Razorbacks, capped off by 16 kills on .400 hitting in Fayetteville Sunday afternoon. It marked Member-Meneh's seventh and eighth double-digit kill performances of the season.

The St. Louis, Missouri, native has been extremely efficient as of late, eclipsing .300 hitting in four of her past six matches. Over that time span, Member-Meneh has produced 78 kills on .345 hitting.
