Women’s volleyball: Godfrey named Lion of the Week

COSTA MESA - Megan Godfrey, who is competing in her fourth season

of volleyball for Vanguard University, earned Lion of the Week honors.

Named Athlete of the Year for Vangaurd last year in part because she

competes in two sports for the Lions, Godfrey has been putting all of her

efforts this fall into her final season of volleyball.

In three Golden State Athletic Conference matches this past week

Godfrey led the Lions in three critical statistical categories, including

kills, digs, and passing percentage.

In a five-game loss to Cal Baptist, Megan topped all players with 17

kills and made no errors in 27 passing attempts.

Two nights later, against 11th-ranked Biola University, Godfrey posted

a match-high 14 kills in the three-game match. She also picked up a

team-high 20 digs.

Godfrey’s 43 kills last week pushed her over the 300 mark for the

season, and she has 1,365 kills in her career. Her 42 digs in the three

matches leaves her just under 300 for the season and just over 1,300 digs

in her college career.
