He added six digs and a pair of aces for a career-high-tying 28 points. The Huntington Beach product then compiled a team-high 21 kills on .342 (21-8-38) hitting during Saturday’s five-set thriller in Irvine, to go alongside eight more digs, three blocks and a match-high four aces. McCauley has now reached the 20-kill mark five times this season, including in each of his last three matches.

This is McCauley’s third Big West weekly recognition this year, having also been named Offensive Player of the Week on Feb. 14 and March 7, and fifth for his career, with two awards during the 2020 campaign.
