  • UC Irvine Hilir Henno led then-No. 7 UC Irvine to a pair of road wins over then-No. 5 Stanford to claim Big West Offensive Player of the Week for the second time of the season. This marks Henno’s fifth career offensive weekly honor. 

  • Henno averaged 6.38 kills, 1.63 digs, 1.25 blocks and 7.50 points per set in two 3-1 victories against the Cardinal 

  • The outside hitter compiled 23 kills on .422 hitting (23-4-45) to go along with three aces, seven digs and five total blocks (1 solo) in Friday’s victorious effort.  

  • In the second contest, Henno was one shy of a career-high with 28 kills, which stands second in the country in kills in a four-set match this year. The native of Pornichet, France, also added six digs and five total blocks, matching a season-high blocking tally in both matches at Stanford. 

  • Following last week’s action, Henno has served 158 career aces, three away from moving into a tie for second all-time at UCI. 

  • Henno leads The Big West – and the NCAA – in points per set, averaging 5.36 per frame on the season.
