Saint Mary’s defensive specialist McKenzie Todd and Alma outside hitter Hannah Guilford garnered Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) Volleyball Player of the Week Awards on Monday for matches through Oct. 4.

Todd, a sophomore from Monroe, claimed the Specialty Player of the Week Award.  The Belles’ libero won Wheaton All-Tournament Team honors last weekend after leading all liberos at the tournament with 5.38 digs per set. Todd opened the week with a career high 24 digs in a 3-2 win over Adrian on Wednesday. Two days later she broke that newly established record by digging 26 attacks against No. 12 Wisconsin-Stevens Point. She completed the five-match week with 94 digs, eight service aces and four assists. 

Guilford, a senior from Hartland, earned Player of the Week honors. She opened the week with a double-double effort with 20 kills and 16 digs to lead the Scots to a 3-2 conference win on the road at Adrian. Her 20 terminations marked a season high. Guilford added another strong performance later in the week in a 3-0 non-conference victory at Otterbein with nine kills and an equal number of digs. The Scots’ leader in kills this season finished the week with 29 kills, 25 digs, four assists and a pair of service aces.
