Fort Hays State University Volleyball had two players named All-MIAA for the 2014 season, announced Wednesday (Nov. 19) by the conference office. Rightside Hitter Mallory Flagor was picked as All-MIAA Second Team by the coaches, while Libero Keanu Bradley picked up an honorable mention nod.
Flagor led the Tigers with 348 kills on the season, starting 27 matches and playing in 29 for the team. A junior, Flagor averaged a career-high 3.16 kills per set in the 2014 campaign, shattering her previous total kills high for a single-season by over 100 (she had 243 in 2013). Among outside hitters, Flagor was the Tigers’ leader with a .245 hitting percentage. On the defensive side of the net, the Hoisington, Kan. native had 69 blocks for the season (five solo), averaging 0.63 blocks per set. For the season, Flagor had double-digit kills in 21 matches, including a string of 13 straight with over 10 kills in the first month of the season. Her career-high in kills came on Sept. 5 against Southeastern Oklahoma State. This is the second career All-MIAA honor for Flagor, as she was honorable mention in 2013.
Bradley played in all 31 matches for FHSU at Libero, leading the team with 611 digs on the year – which ranks fifth all-time in the school’s rally scoring era. Additionally, the sophomore’s average of 5.36 digs per set is the sixth highest digs per set average in school history (fourth highest with rally scoring). From Rose Hill, Kan., Bradley was an anchor in the back row for FHSU, digging up double-digit attacks in all but four matches and reaching the 20-kill mark in 13 matches. Three times this season, Bradley had over 30 digs, including a career-high 35 digs against Central Missouri in a four-set match. She also led the team with 14 service aces for the year. This was her first career All-MIAA nod.
