Baylor volleyball senior outside hitter Avery Skinner is this week’s Lariat Spotlight Athlete. The Katy native had a career-high 27 kills to go with 12 digs and three blocks in the first of two matches against Texas Tech University. Skinner followed up that performance with 22 kills and 10 digs for a double-double in the second match against Texas Tech and an 18-kill performance against the University of North Texas Wednesday. Skinner earned her first weekly Big 12 honor as the Offensive Player of the Week due to her play.
Head coach Ryan McGuyre said Skinner is “unstoppable” alongside senior outside hitter Yossiana Pressley.
