OMAHA, Neb. -- Sophomore libero Brittany Witt has been named BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week after helping Creighton Volleyball to the Kansas Invitational title last weekend.
Witt averaged 3.80 digs and 0.50 aces per set, earning All-Tournament Team honors, as Creighton went 2-1 against a field that featured two ranked opponents as well as preseason OVC favorite Belmont.
Witt had 14 digs and tied her career high with three aces against No. 17 Purdue to open the weekend. Later that day the Omaha native added eight digs and an ace as CU made quick work of Belmont.
