Sofía Maldonado Diaz is taking Pac-12 volleyball by storm.
The Arizona freshman was named the conference’s newcomer of the week after posting historic numbers against No. 11 Washington. Her 25 kills on Saturday were the most by an Arizona freshman since 2007 and she only needed 41 swings to do it.
Maldonado Diaz also had 11 digs, making her the first UA freshman to have a double-double with 20 or more kills since U.S. national teamer Madi Kingdon did it in 2011.
Maldonado Diaz attacked in different ways. Spikes, tips, chops, you name it.
