Greencastle, Ind. -
Grace Myers (So., New Palestine, Ind./New Palestine) has been chosen North Coast Athletic Conference Volleyball Defensive Athlete of the Week for her performances in DePauw's road wins over Wittenberg and Oberlin.
In nine sets, the libero led the Tigers with 52 digs (5.78/set), while also serving up three aces. She recorded 26 digs in each match including 6.5/set in the Wittenberg win. The win at Wittenberg was the Tigers' first victory over the Ohio-based Tigers in an NCAC regular season match.
DePauw (12-10, 5-0 NCAC) can clinch the number-one seed in next month's NCAC Tournament and at least a share of the conference title with a win over Ohio Wesleyan tonight. The teams, both 5-0 in NCAC play, square off in Neal Fieldhouse at 7 p.m.
