Huskers Rodriguez Earns Big Ten Defensive POTY Award

Nebraska libero Lexi Rodriguez has been named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week. 

It was the seventh time in her career and second time this season she has won the weekly honor.  The two-time Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year averaged 4.17 digs per set last week, helping the Huskers post road sweeps at Oregon and Washington. 

Meanwhile, in Monday’s AVCA poll, NU stayed at No. 2, trailing only Pitt.  Creighton volleyball remained No. 5.
