February 02, 2026 | Men's Volleyball
Klein earned his sixth-career MPSF Player of the Week award
LOS ANGELES – USC men's volleyball senior outside hitter Dillon Klein (Pacific Palisades, Calif./Loyola HS) was named the MPSF/Molten Offensive Player of the Week for the week of Jan. 26-Feb. 1, the league announced on Monday, Feb. 2.
Â
It is the first weekly award won by a Trojan this season and is the sixth-career selection for Klein. Last year, USC players earned MPSF weekly awards eight times; three times by Klein.
Â
Klein has led the Trojans in kills and points in each of USC's five contests in 2026. Over the weekend, he produced his ninth-career match with 20 or more kills and turned in his 66th-career match in double-digit kills. Klein led the Trojans with 25.0 points in a win over No. 13 Ohio State in which he had 20 kills and hit .319 to go with a pair of service aces, five blocks (one solo), and four digs.
Â
Fourth-ranked USC (5-0) is undefeated through five matches for the third straight season and hosts No. 16 CSUN (7-1) and No. 15 UC Santa Barbara (5-3) at Galen Center this week. The Trojans—4-0 on their home floor—take on the Matadors on Wednesday (Feb. 4) for a 7 p.m. PT match and then takes on the Gauchos on Saturday (Feb. 7) at 5 p.m. Both will be shown on Big Ten Plus streams.
