Mallorie, a 5-foot-8 senior from Brownfield, turned in one of her best efforts of the season, if not career, when the Pioneer volleyball team took on Texas Wesleyan in the first round of the Sooner Athletic Conference Tournament in Fort Worth.
In the 25-18, 23-25, 23-25, 25-16, 15-9 loss, Mallorie ended her collegiate career with a personal-best 20 kills – one better than her previous best as a sophomore – and 15 digs. She hit .240. It was her first extensive action in almost a month due to injury.
"Mallorie had a phenomenal night," coach Jim Giacomazzi said. "I can't say enough about her courage and desire to be successful. I had to take her out every once in a while just to let her rest. She was stretching (her back) during timeouts. She was giving it her all."
Mallorie earned All-SAC Second Team honors this season. She was All-SAC Honorable Mention as a sophomore.
