PEORIA, Ill. -- Senior libero Yavianliz Rosado (Morovis, Puerto Rico/Colegio Carmen Sol/San Jose State) has been named the Bradley COUNTRY Financial Scholar-Athlete of the Week after helping Bradley Volleyball to a 3-0 record and the tournament title at the 2018 CEFCU Invitational.

Rosado averaged a team-best 6.82 digs per set to go with 1.36 assists and 0.27 aces per set while helping the Braves limit opponents to a .144 hitting percentage. She opened the weekend with 21 digs and six assists in a four-set victory over Western Illinois. In a sweep of Toledo, she broke her own school record for digs in a three-set match with a season-best 31 and helped the Braves top the school team mark for digs in a three-set match which stood since 1988. Rosado capped the week with 23 digs, three assists and three aces in a four-set victory over George Washington to help Bradley improve to 5-1 on the season. The 5-1 start to the season matches the best six-game start to a season in school history. A political science major, Rosado owns a 3.20 cumulative grade point average.

Each week, a Bradley student-athlete is selected as the COUNTRY Financial 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.

Rosado and Bradley Volleyball are back in action Friday morning, opening play at the Gamecock Classic in Gadsden, Ala., with a 10 a.m. matchup against Western Carolina.
