DeKALB – Northern Illinois senior volleyball player Jenna Radtke's father, Jeffrey, has a Google alert whenever news pops up about his daughter.
This week, he found out she made history.
Jenna Radtke was named the Mid-American Conference West Defensive Player of the Week after winning the division's Offensive Player of the Week earlier in the season – becoming the first player in the program's storied history to win both awards in the same season.
"When I won both awards, I wasn't thinking, 'Oh, I'm going to win them this week,'" she said. "I just felt good about how I was playing and it just kind of happened.
