COLORADO SPRINGS -- BYU opposite hitter Christina Measom has been named Mountain West Conference Volleyball Player of the Week. It is the first league weekly honor for Measom in her career.

Against TCU, Measom recorded a career-high 18 kills on .455 hitting with two aces, four digs and two block assists.
