KJCCC - I Volleyball Players of the Week, Week 8, 2015

Sophomore Jai Chapman had an impactful weekend for the No. 19 Blue Dragons in a 3-3 week against both the top teams in the Jayhawk West and some of the better teams in the nation. For the week, Chapman hit .257 with 3.20 kills per set. She added 3.48 digs and 0.36 blocks per set and had three double-doubles. In Hutchinson's two five-set victories last week, Chapman played a central role in both wins. In HCC's five-set win at Seward County – The Blue Dragons trailed 0-2 – Chapman produced 17 kills on a career-high .405 hitting percentage. She had 12 digs for a double-double against the Saints. At the MSU-West Plains Grizzly Invitational, Chapman had her third double-double of the week with 16 kills and a career-high 32 digs (fourth-most in a single match in Blue Dragon volleyball history).

Maja Jankovic, Colby, has put up some nice numbers. During one of our toughest weeks of the season with matches against four nationally ranked teams, including an upset of #19 Hutchinson, Jankovic averaged 5.6 digs per set with 95 digs for the week, 9 assists, and 3 aces.  Due to injury, Maja was not able to play in our match vs. #15 Jefferson.
