LOS ANGELES -- Cal State LA's Samarah DaCoud has been named the FloCollege/CCAA Volleyball Offensive Player of the Week for the first time in her career, the conference announced on Tuesday. 

The sophomore outside hitter helped lead Cal State LA to a pair of wins as the Golden Eagles improved to 6-0 in conference play and 10-3 overall. DaCoud led the conference on the weekend with two double-doubles and averages of 5.75 kills and 6.19 points per set. She added 3.25 digs per set, three assists, and two aces, while registering a .406 hitting percentage. 

DaCoud put up back-to-back 23-kill performances, starting in a win at Cal State San Marcos on Thursday. She posted 23 kills and 14 digs in four sets to lead the Golden Eagles past the Cougars. She added 23 kills and 12 digs in another double-double performance in a four-set home win over Chico State on Saturday. 

DaCoud ranks second in the CCAA and 18th in NCAA Division II with 4.14 kills per set. She is also 18th with 4.72 points per set.

This is the first career CCAA weekly honor for DaCoud, and the second consecutive week a member of the Golden Eagles has been recognized. Senior Arielle Chandler was named the CCAA Setter of the Week last week.

Cal State LA will put its perfect conference record (6-0 CCAA) on the line this week when it travels to UC Merced on Friday at 5 p.m. and Stanislaus State on Saturday at 2 p.m. Both matches will be available on FloCollege.
