Player of the Week: October 3, 2016

Each week of the spring and fall seasons, one player who was originally reported as a recruit by AVSR Global is named Player of the Week for an exceptional performance.

Fall Week #6: Luisa Nieto Gomez

Midland College (Texas), Western Jr. College Athletic Conf., NJCAA-I.
Reported to coaches in 2015 by AVSR Global.
Home:  Zapopan, Mexico.
Freshman, 5'9" Middle Blocker/Outside Hitter.
See Luisa Nieto’s bio at the Midland College website.

Last Week:

• Midland won five of six matches with Nieto as the team’s top all-purpose player. She has led Midland in blocks and hitting efficiency all season.
• Nieto was an instant starter as a freshman middle this year. She ranks second on the team in ace serves.
• Her sister, Gaby Nieto Gomez, starred at Midland in 2012-14. She moved ahead to become the top middle for Jacksonville University in Florida.

Excerpt from 2015 AVSR Global report:

“Luisa is savvy and quick. She has great depth as a player, and she does many things well as an undersized middle. … Her comfort level on the court is a highlight. She’s a happy, relaxed player and a reliable performer.”
