Going Back to Carli: Lloyd Named CVU.com National Player of the Year

The Collegiate Volleyball Update (CVU.com) is pleased to announce its selection of California's Carli Lloyd as the 2010 CVU.com National Player of the Year.

A senior from Bonsall, Calif., Lloyd directed the Golden Bears to their best season in school history as they captured the Pac-10 title and advanced to the National Championship match.

Cal started the season with 15-straight victories and would go on to a 30-4 record, the most wins in school history.

On the attack, Cal had high marks in both hitting percentage and kills, as the Golden Bears hit .308 for the year — good for a No. 3 ranking in that category — and were sixth in kills per set with 14.63. Lloyd finished ranked eighth in assists per set with 11.83.

In other categories, Lloyd was equally as solid, averaging nearly a kill per set with 0.97 and just over a block at 1.08. She also added 2.52 digs per set. Those stats are all tops among the five CVU honorees this season.

Finally, the 5-11 setter was named to the Pac-10 All-Conference team, earned league Player of the Week honors, picked up a spot on the NCAA Division I All-Championship team and was named the CVU.com National Setter of the Year.
