ST. PAUL, Minn. – University of Minnesota Morris senior
Tori Everson was named the UMAC Offensive Performer of the Week on Tuesday after leading the Cougar volleyball team to a pair of sweeps on the road over Crown College and North Central University.
Everson, a native of Willmar, Minn., was efficient in both matches, combining for 17 kills with one error on 28 attack attempts. She ended with six kills in the win at Crown and added 11 in the victory over North Central. Against the Rams, she needed only 16 attempts to total those 11 kills, resulting in a hitting percentage of .688 for the match. On defense, Everson added nine digs and a block assist in the two matches.
With those two victories, Minnesota Morris volleyball has now won three straight matches heading into Thursday night when the Cougars host Martin Luther College at 5:30 p.m. A match scheduled for Saturday at Northland College has been postponed and no make-up date has yet been announced.
