January 31, 2018 (San Diego) - San Diego State senior women’s tennis player Jana Buth (Kaiserslautern, Germany) has been named Mountain West Player of the Week, the conference announced Wednesday. This is the first career MW weekly honor for Buth.

Buth enters her second season of consistent top-seed play in both singles and doubles for the Aztecs. The Kaiserslautern, Germany native owns a perfect 3-0 record in both doubles and singles play this season and helped the Aztecs claim victories against UC San Diego (5-2) and UC Irvine (7-0) last weekend.

Buth paired up with senior Paola Diaz in both doubles matches, going 6-3 against UCSD’s Ashley Chao and Becky Chou, and notched a 6-0, 7-6 (4) win over Chao in the No. 1 singles contest on Saturday. Buth and Diaz nabbed another doubles match on Sunday against UCI’s Flora Amiri and Yulin Chen, 6-2, and Buth remained hot against Vivien Dvali to record a 6-1, 6-2 victory in singles.
