Volleyball's Brittany Witt Earns Fourth Defensive Player of the Week Honor

OMAHA, Neb. -- Creighton Volleyball libero Brittany Witt has been named the BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week, league officials announced on Tuesday.

Witt averaged 5.17 digs, 2.50 assists and 0.83 aces per set as Creighton swept home matches over Marquette and DePaul last weekend.

It's the fourth honor of the season for Witt, who previously won the award on Sept. 2, Sept. 26 and Oct. 17. Creighton has now won the BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week award in eight of the 11 weeks this fall, with teammates Marysa Wilkinson (3x) and Jaali Winters (1) also being recognized.
