Matador Student-Athletes of the Week - April 11

Each week in 2022, GoMatadors.com selects two Matadors as Student-Athletes of the Week. This week we highlight Yanla Ndjip-Nyemeck of the women's track and field team and Daniel Wetter of the men's volleyball team.

Yanla Ndjip-Nyemeck, Women's Track and Field

Yanla Ndjip-Nyemeck won the 100m hurdles at the Apr. 9 Brutus Hamilton Invitational in a time of :13.42. Ndjip-Nyemeck has won all three 100m hurdles races she has entered this season. She later lowered her season-best in the 200m to :24.07 to finish second in the event. That time is the seventh fastest by a CSUN freshman in school history. She ran the second leg on the 4x100m relay which placed second in a season-best time of :45.75.

Daniel Wetter, Men's Volleyball

Redshirt junior Daniel Wetter had an impressive week on the court in two Big West matches against 14th-ranked UC Irvine. In the opener of the two-match series in Northridge on Friday, Wetter knocked down 13 kills on 19 errorless attacks while also adding two assists, one dig and one block. On Saturday at UCI's Bren Center, the middle blocker from Camarillo led all hitters in the match, putting down 15 kills - which matches his season-high - while hitting an impressive .667 on 21 swings. Wetter committed just a single hitting error in the two-match series with UCI, winding up with 28 kills on 40 attacks to hit .675 in the two matches. Wetter also added a pair of blocks on Saturday.
