(Arlington, Texas - Sept. 23, 2025) - Senior outside hitter
Kennedi Knudsen was named the Jersey Mike's A Sub Above WAC Player of the Week for a fourth straight week, the conference announced on Tuesday.
Knudsen continued her strong senior season last weekend at the Into the Blue Invitational hosted by Air Force leading the Trailblazers in kills in all three matches.
Opening the tournament surpassing the career program kills record and finishing with 28 in a four-set win over Northern Colorado, the WAC Preseason Player of the Year followed it up with 33 kills, coming one kill shy of matching her own program record for most kills in a single match, in a five-set battle against Denver.
Knudsen wrapped up the tournament on Saturday with a double-double against the Falcons on Satuday posting 20 kills and 15 digs.
The Gunnison, Utah native added 28 digs, eight assists, four blocks, pair of aces and hit .281 in the tournament.
On the season, Knudsen leads the WAC in kills (214 - 6th nationally), total attacks (559 - 6th nationally), points (232.0 - 8th nationally), kills per set (4.86 - 9th nationally), attacks per set (12.70 - 2nd nationally) and points per set (5.27 - 14th nationally).
The Trailblazers open WAC action on Thursday night at Southern Utah (1-10) at 6:30 p.m.
