Charleston's Xander Bomert is the EIVA Offensive Player of the Week for Jan. 20, 2025. Xander carried a heavy load for the Golden Eagles in a pair of non-conference losses to Lincoln Memorial on Jan. 17-18. The freshman opposite opened the weekend with a dozen kills, a dig and a block in a 3-0 loss to the Railsplitters. The next day he had 22 kills on .295 hitting with five digs and a block over four sets. The 22 kills, on 44 swings, is an EIVA season high. For the weekend he totaled 34 kills on 73 swings, hitting .274, with six digs and a pair of blocks. The freshman opposite has posted double digits in kills in all five of the Eagles’ matches in 2025, recording at least 16 kills in three contests, and is taking 9.47 swings per set, which ranks third in the nation. His 77 kills and 4.05 kills per set leads the EIVA. This is Bomert’s first career EIVA weekly honor.
