Mandolfo Named MVC Defensive Player of the Week



Creighton sophomore Julianne Mandolfo has been named the Missouri Valley Conference Defensive Player of the Week after averaging 6.86 digs and 0.29 aces per set in two matches last weekend. This is the second honor in three weeks for Mandolfo, who earned similar recognition on October 3rd.

The St. Columbkille product began her weekend with a match-best 21 digs in Creighton’s 3-1 win over Bradley, which moved her from 12th to 10th in school history for career digs. Mandolfo leads the MVC with 5.85 digs per set, a figure that ranks among the top-10 averages nationally.

Congratulations Julianne!
