Hilley, Nuneviller put on record-setting performances in Week 9 of PVF
It was a double dub week for the Omaha Supernovas as they picked up wins against the Grand Rapid Rise and Vegas Thrill in Week 9 of the Pro Volleyball Federation.
At the helm of the offense in both victories was setter Sydney Hilley who not only had her best personal performances of the season but was recognized by the league as the Player of the Week.
Hilley broke the franchise record for assists with 51 assists in four sets against the Rise.
