XU's Reuther is GCAC Player of the Week for 6th time in career

Taylor Reuther
NEW ORLEANS — For the sixth time in her women's volleyball career at Xavier University of Louisiana, Taylor Reuther is the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference Player of the Week.
      

Reuther — a 5-foot-7 outside hitter, a junior from Metairie, La., and a graduate of St. Mary's Dominican High School in New Orleans — won the award for Aug. 19-25 after producing three kill-dig double-doubles during the season-opening UMobile/Spring Hill Tournament at Mobile, Ala. Reuther finished the tournament with 59 kills and 57 digs in 15 sets over four matches. She had 18 kills and 11 digs in a three-set sweep of Asbury and a career-high-tying 21 kills and 22 digs in a five-set victory against Southern Wesleyan.
          

Xavier, the two-time defending GCAC regular-season and tournament champion, will travel to Houston for matches Friday and Saturday in the UST Labor Day Tournament. On Friday the Gold Nuggets will play city rival Loyola at 11 a.m. and St. Thomas (Texas) at 3 p.m. On Saturday the Nuggets will play Columbia (S.C.) at 10 a.m. and Montana Tech at 4 p.m.
