  • Clarke Godbold led No. 2 Long Beach State to a pair of four-set victories at the NJIT Tournament last week to claim Big West Offensive Player of the Week honors. This marks a third career weekly offensive award and seventh overall.  

  • The senior outside hitter averaged 4.88 kills per set on a .522 attack percentage (39-3-69), while also adding 1.25 blocks per set, and 0.38 digs per set. Godbold started the week knocking down 18 kills on a .567 clip (18-1-30), to go along with four blocks and two digs in a 3-1 win over No. 17 George Mason.  

  • The product of San Pedro, Calif., followed that performance with a season-high 21 kills on a .487 attack percentage (21-2-39), while adding six blocks, and one dig in a 3-1 win at NJIT. 

  • Godbold currently rates first in The Big West and seventh nationally in hitting percentage at 0.466 on the season. Godbold’s 4.93 points per set is also good for seventh in NCAA Division I-II and second in the league.
