Nicole Smith

Tim Monihan and Farmers Insurance recognize senior right side hitter Nicole Smith as the first Player of the Week for the first fall sports season. 

“It is a milestone to me, and I hope to accomplish more in the future,” Smith said. 

Smith is a four-year starter on the varsity volleyball team. She eclipsed 1,000 career kills last weekend when the team played in the Sequoyah Classic. 

“As a key leader, as a senior, she has accomplished a career goal this week, and that’s why I picked her,” head coach Jason Flowers said.

Earlier this week, Smith had 11 kills in the team’s 2-0 win over Houston County, 25-18, 25-19. She then added nine kills and four digs in the team’s 2-1 loss to Newnan, 25-20, 22-25, 12-15. 

The team travels to Carrollton next Tuesday before hosting the Southside Invitational on August 28.
