The Big Ten Players of the Week were announced Monday and three Spartans made the list.
For the second straight week, football senior running back Javon Ringer was named Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week. Ringer ran the ball 43 times and had 282 yards during Saturday’s game — both were career highs.
Women’s soccer junior goalkeeper Lindsey Wrege was named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week for the second straight week, after posting her fifth shutout of the season Sunday. The Spartans are now 7-0-0.
Field hockey junior goalkeeper Elissa Unger was named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week for the first time in her career.
Unger stopped 11 shots in two wins for the Spartans last weekend to boost the team’s record to 5-1.
