Austin Peay State University Athletics

Clarksville, Tenn. – Senior libero April Adams, of the Austin Peay State University volleyball team, has been named the Copies in a Flash APSU Athlete of the Week.

Adams led the Lady Govs with 65 digs in three matches—all wins—for Austin Peay last week, concluding the week with a 31-dig outing in Saturday’s Senior Day outing against UT Martin.

In addition to her 65 digs, the Ashland City, Tenn., native had just five receiving errors in 76 attempts (93.4 percent) and recorded four aces in three matches. She also had a big week off the floor as well, earning CoSIDA Academic All-District honors.

The Copies in a Flash APSU Athlete of the Week is selected by the APSU Sports Information staff each Wednesday during the academic year. Copies in a Flash, of Clarksville, sponsors the award.

Other notable performances by Austin Peay athletes included:

• Sophomore outside hitter Kelly Ferguson, of the volleyball team, posted a career-high 15 kills in Friday’s match against Southeast Missouri, part of a 33-kill week for the Lemont, Ill., native.
• Sophomore safety Devon Jones, of the football team, recorded a career-high 12 tackles (2.5 for loss) and added his first career sack in Saturday’s home finale against Southeast Missouri.
