Wisconsin Badgers middle blocker CC Crawford’s play last week was rewarded by the Big Ten conference. The senior from Lansing, Kansas was named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week for her performances against Iowa and Illinois.
Crawford helped UW to two more sweeps this week, and was her usual impressive self on defense, tallying 12 total blocks in those two matches including seven blocks against the Illini — a season-high for a three-set match.
Crawford also pitched in with five digs in the matches and tallied two service aces across the weekend, demonstrating her versatility.
