Wisconsin volleyball: Carter Booth earns Defensive Player of the Week honors

A Wisconsin Badgers player has earned weekly conference honors for a second consecutive week.

Sophomore middle blocker Carter Booth has won Defensive Player of the Week honors, the second time she has earned those plaudits this season.

The 6-foot-7 middle blocker, who transferred from Minnesota over the off-season, posted 2.43 blocks per set in UW’s two matches this past week. Against Purdue, Booth put up seven blocks including two solo blocks. In Saturday’s match against Illinois, Booth tallied 10 blocks, which is tied for the second highest mark in Badger history in a three-set match.
