Junior outside hitter Ashley Schatzle was named the Big Ten Volleyball Player of the Week after leading the Spartans to wins against Michigan and Iowa.
The honor is the first for an MSU volleyball player since the 2003 season.
Schatzle averaged 6.5 kills per game and hit .423 for the week. She sparked an MSU comeback against U-M by serving eight straight points in the third game.
The Spartans will hit the road this weekend for two conference matches, meeting No. 16 Ohio State on Friday and No. 2 Penn State on Saturday.
