May 15, 2018 | Women's Tennis
Sophomore Ena Shibahara of the UCLA women's tennis team has been named the UCLA/Muscle Milk Student-Athlete of the Week for May 6-13.
Shibahara led No. 12 seed UCLA to a pair of NCAA Tournament wins last week, first over unranked Fresno State then against No. 25 Baylor. She went 2-0 in both singles and doubles, playing on court one in both singles matchups, taking down the other teams' top player. Shibahara partnered with Alaina Miller to dominate doubles as the pair finished first in both matches.
The Bruins play in the round of 16 this week for first time since 2015, facing No. 5 seed Ole Miss on Thursday at 4 p.m. PT from Winston-Salem, N.C.
This is Shibahara's first UCLA/Muscle Milk Student-Athlete of the Week of the season and the second of her career.
Also Nominated: Devin Grab (Women's Water Polo), Simon Litzell (Men's Track and Field), Jessie Maduka (Women's Track and Field), Keegan Smith (Men's Tennis).
