Hillsboro, Kan. - For the second consecutive week sophomores Tina Frick and Mandi Phillips have been named KCAC Players of the Week for their performances in helping lead the Bluejays to a 1-1 record over this past week including a huge win over Sooner Conference power Southern Nazarene.

"We are thrilled to have these two women receive honors," said Head Coach Amy Ratzlaff. "Their success is a big indicator that a lot of great things are happening on the team. I am so excited to see an increase in performance each week from Tina and Mandi."

Frick (Durham, Kan.) was named KCAC Hitter of the Week as well as KCAC Volleyball Player of the Week as she racked-up 35 kills, including 19 against Southern Nazarene with an average of 4.38 per-game over the two game stretch. Her 10 total blocks (1.25 per-game) and an attack percentage of .545 also played a major roll in the Bluejays success during the week.

"Tina had an unbelievable week and was simply unstoppable against Southern Nazarene, helping lead us to that important victory," said Ratzlaff. "Her 4.38 kills per-game is impressive, but what I am excited about is her overall .545 hitting percentage for the week. To have a hitter with only five errors for the week is significant."

For an unprecedented fifth consecutive week this season Phillips (Halstead, Kan.) was named KCAC Setter of the Week recording 102 assists, including 54 against Southern Nazarene with an average of 12.75 assists per-game over the two game stretch. Her three total blocks and 19 digs also provided the Bluejays a lift.

"The 12.75 assists stat for Mandi is certainly worthy of the honor," Ratzlaff said. "She continues to hold on to the Setter of the Week title by producing great performances."
