NEW ORLEANS – The Sun Belt Conference offices announced Tuesday morning that Texas State setter Ryann Torres and libero Alyssa Ortega were named Setter and Defensive Player of the Week, respectively.
This is Torres' second conference honor of the season, and Ortega's first. This is the first time this season that two Bobcats have won a weekly award in the same week. Texas State has now won six conference awards this season, with two setter, two defensive and two offensive awards.
Torres played a key role in the Bobcats back-to-back sweeps over Southern Miss to earn her award as she tallied a Sun Belt Conference-best 13.
