IRVING, Texas – University of Oklahoma volleyball junior Kierra Holst was named the Big 12 Co-Offensive Player of the Week as announced by the conference on Monday afternoon. The award is the second weekly honor of her career and the third for a Sooner player in the 2014 season.

An outside hitter from Coppell, Texas, Holst tallied a match-high 16 kills in Oklahoma's road upset of No. 2 Texas on Saturday night. For the week, she hit a team-best .311 and averaged 4.50 kills per set as the Sooners faced a pair of Top-25 opponents away from home. The win over the Longhorns was the first for Oklahoma in Austin since 2008.

Holst hit a season-high .588 with 11 kills and one error on 17 attempts at No. 22 Kansas State on Wednesday.

She shared the honor this week with K-State middle blocker Natali Jones. Holst previously claimed the award on September 29 after a 23-kill night against No. 23 Kansas in the Sooners' Big 12 opener.

On the season, Holst is averaging a team-high 3.34 kills per set, including 3.87 in eight conference matches. She is hitting .245 with 1.05 digs and a league-leading 0.52 service aces per set.

For the second straight season, Holst was recognized as a Preseason All-Big 12 selection. Following her rookie season in 2012, she was named to the Big 12 All-Freshman Team.

Oklahoma returns to action at home on Saturday night against West Virginia at 7:00 pm.
