πŸ”Ό Thrice Is Nice. Boise State junior Paige Bartsch has been named the Mountain West Volleyball Offensive Player of the Week for matches played Nov. 13-18. It’s her third offensive player of the week honor of the season and fourth of her career.

Bartsch led Boise State to a big road sweep over the weekend, which secured a MW Championship berth with wins over Nevada (3-0) and Fresno State (3-1) as she combined for 42.5 points over the week, including 23 on Saturday at Fresno State to set the school record for points in a season with 598.

During the week, she averaged 19 kills and 21.25 points per match, both team highs, with per set averages of 5.43 kills, 0.29 service aces, 3.14 digs, 0.71 blocks and 6.07 points, while hitting a team-second-best .386.
