After a week that saw the Grizzlies knock off a couple ranked opponents, Butler sophomore Ivy Fink has been named the Jayhawk Conference Defensive Player of the Week.

Fink, 5'9 sophomore outside hitter from Hoyt, KS, was big for the Grizzlies this week as they picked up a couple of wins over ranked teams and finished last week 3-3. Fink was strong on both sides of the ball as she recorded 88 digs on the week in her 22 sets played. Fink recorded a career high 29 digs in the match against Jefferson. Not only was Fink effective defensively all week but she recorded four double-doubles on the week with kills and digs as she posted 50 kills as well. Fink had five blocks and 10 aces as well.

This is the second time this season Fink has been named for a weekly award but her first as Defensive Player of the Week and now the fifth time a Grizzly has won the honor.
