BETHLEHEM, Pa. – Sophomore outside hitter Megan Schulte opened her 2022 season with capturing the first Patriot League Player of the Week award of the season. She was a main cog in the Lehigh volleyball team going 3-0 at the FAU Invitational over the weekend, winning nine straight sets.
Schulte totaled 40 kills over three matches, averaging 5.00 kills per set and hitting .346 for the weekend. She matched a career-high 21 kills in the season-opener vs. Mercer with a .389 attack percentage. Against Alabama A&M, she registered eight kills and only one error for a .467 hitting percentage with four service aces and three digs.
