Monserez
Leadership Earns MLV Weekly Honors
February 24, 2026.- By virtue of one of her most complete
performances of the season, San Diego’s Marlie Monserez has been
selected Major League Volleyball Player of the Week presented by
Franklin Sports. The Mojo setter orchestrated a five-set
comeback victory over Omaha on Sunday, the third victory over the
last four matches for San Diego and its third consecutive home win.
Monserez recorded her ninth double-double of the season with 55
assists and 17 digs, guiding the Mojo to a .292 hitting percentage
in first ball situations and a .219 mark in transition. Despite the
team passing at a 2.4 rating and facing consistent pressure from
Omaha’s serve, Monserez elevated the offense, creating
high-efficiency opportunities and maintaining balance across all
attacking options.
Individually, she attacked at a .625 efficiency, scoring on five of
eight attempts with no errors, capitalizing on scoring opportunities
and forcing the defense to account for her at the net, while
averaging 5.5 assists and 3.4 digs. Her 55-assist performance is
tied for the sixth-most in franchise history and marked her fourth
55-assist match of the season, underscoring her consistency and
impact. This is her second career MLV weekly award.
The
Mojo returns to action on Thursday, February 26 when they travel to
Grand Rapids. Fans interested in tickets to the match – or any match

Tickets Central page
