MORAGA, Calif. – After impressive performances against Portland and Gonzaga to open WCC Conference play last week, Hawley Harrer of women's volleyball has been named Bay Alarm Student Athlete of the Week. 
 
The Gaels, who've won five of their last six games, are finding their mojo as conference play kicks into high gear. 
 
This season has been a breakout year for fifth-year opposite Harrer, who has been excelling as the veteran of the Gaels attack. She has 10 or more kills in all but two matches this season, including 14+ in four matches. After racking up 16 kills at Portland last Wednesday, she piled up 18 on Saturday afternoon against the Zags, just one off of her career-high that she set earlier this year. She was a major factor in the final set when the Gaels closed it out in four sets, adding two kills and a solo block during the Gaels final seven points of the set.
 
The women's volleyball team are back in action tonight at 7 pm in UCU Pavilion as they look to continue their hot streak at home against USF.
