Rohling produced a pair of efficient performances at home against South Florida and UCF. In Friday's sweep against the Bulls, the lefty hit a season-best .529, putting down 10 balls on just 17 swings while committing a single attack error. She added four blocks and two digs to aid the Shocker defensive effort.
Rohling followed up her stellar outing on Friday with another solid performance against one of the nation's best defensive units Sunday against UCF. The native of Neodesha, Kansas led Wichita State with 11 kills, hitting .286 on 28 attempts while adding two more blocks to her season total. Combined, Rohling averaged 3.0 kills per set over the course of seven sets, hitting a cumulative .378. She ranks second on the team with a .250 season hitting percentage, and is third with 184 kills despite missing five matches due to injury.
The Shockers are back in action on the road next week, traveling to East Carolina on Friday night. First serve from Greenville is scheduled for 5:00 pm CT.Â
