Charlotte, North Carolina - After dropping a single-game program record 21 service aces in the women's volleyball team's first victory of the season against Bronx Community College, BMCC sophomore Setter Xheni Doci (Saluzzo, Italy) was recognized as the program's first-ever NJCAA Division III Women's Volleyball Player of the Week on Wednesday.
Doci recorded 24 service aces during the Panther's two games last week, leading the BMCC offensive attack from the service line. After just three service aces in a straight-set opening loss to Passaic County Community College, she went off on the road over the weekend against CUNYAC and Region 15 opponent Bronx Community College with 21 service aces, a new single-game program record, with 10 of them coming in the first set. Her efforts led the Borough of Manhattan Community College women's volleyball team to their first win of the season in straight sets over the Broncos.
Doci's 21 service aces surpassed Jennifer Chacon's previous mark of 15 registered against Sullivan County Community College on September 29, 2018. Doci currently leads the Panthers with 24 service aces and 36 assists after last night's matchup at home against Raritan Valley Community College.
The Panthers will look to get back their winning ways on Saturday, September 17, at home against Region 15 opponent Dutchess Community College at noon. For more information on the matchup, visit the BMCC Women's Volleyball Schedule Page.
