Some players really know how to finish—Naomi Washington wrapped up her illustrious Big West career last week, and earned her second Player of the Week award of the season after two strong performances.  Washington led the 49ers to a 10th Big West Championship, and the second in a row for the 49ers.

The team clinched a bid into their 23rd consecutive with two wins last week, defeating UC Riverside and UC Irvine, with the latter coming in a match that sent the winner to the postseason.

Against the Highlanders, Washington led The Beach with 11 kills and added a pair of aces in a 3-0 victory.

The following evening, Washington put together one of the most complete matches of her career on a big stage, leading the 49ers with 26 kills on .421 hitting and making a career-high 10 digs in her first career double-double. Washington also added an ace and four blocks in the five-set win over the Anteaters.

Washington also won the award after the Tulane Sugar Bowl Classic on Sept. 14, and becomes the second LBSU player in a row to be named the Big West Player of the Week after Caitlin Ledoux earned the honor last week.
