PEORIA, Ill. -- Senior volleyball player Lindsay Stalzer (Kewanee, Ill./Kewanee) has named the Bradley Country Insurance & Financial Services Scholar-Athlete of the Week, announced Thursday after helping the Braves to a 2-0 record last week.

Stalzer earned Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Week Honors for the third time in the last four weeks after she averaged 7.00 kills and 2.62 digs per game, while hitting .350 in a pair of Bradley victories. She set a school record with 36 kills to go along with 14 digs, in the Braves five-game victory at DePaul. The 36 kills tied for the second-best mark in Missouri Valley Conference history, second only to Bobbi Becker's 40 kills.

Stalzer followed up her record-setting performance against DePaul with her seventh consecutive outing with 20 or more kills in a three-game sweep of Northern Iowa. She finished with 20 kills and hit .364 against the Panthers, helping Bradley sweep UNI for the first time since 1984. Stalzer climbed up three spots on the Valley's career kills list into 14th place during the week and now has 1,581 career kills. An engineering major, she owns a 3.30 cumulative grade point average.

Each week, a Bradley student-athlete is selected as the Country Insurance & Financial Services Scholar-Athlete of the Week. The individual chosen must be at least a sophomore in class standing and boast a minimum 3.0 cumulative grade point average, while displaying a level of athletic excellence.

Stalzer and the Braves return to action Friday when they face Indiana State in Terre Haute, Ind., at 7 p.m.
