Brooke Gyori, a freshman defensive specialist for Owens Community College, has been named the OCCAC player of the week in women's volleyball.
Gyori is the third player from Owens to win the award this season. She follows Macy Reigelsperger and Erika Hartings.
Gyori totaled 120 digs over five matches last week. En route to 24 digs per match, the freshman set a new season-high with 35 against No. 8 Des Moines Area Community College on Sept. 18. She had at least 17 digs in all five matches and at least 20 in four of the five.
Aside from her digs, she added 10 assists and eight aces.
Owens (15-5 overall, 6-0 OCCAC) has received a team-high 331 digs from Gyori this year, which averages out to 4.87 digs per set. She also leads her team in aces with 45 and is third in assists with 32.
Owens, ranked No. 7 in the most recent NJCAA Division II poll, hits the road Wednesday to take on conference foe Lorain County Community College.
