Kelsey Fien was named Big Ten Player of the Week, and Meghan Haggerty earned Defensive Player of the Week, the conference office announced on Monday.

Fien led the Huskers offensively in sweeps over No. 12 Purdue and Indiana. The junior from Bakersfield, Calif., averaged 4.3 kills per set with a match-high 15 kills along with four blocks against Purdue. Fien added 11 kills on 19 attacks against Indiana for a career-best .526 hitting percentage. Fien is the first Husker to be named B1G Player of the Week since Kelsey Robinson on Nov. 18 last season. The honor is the first of Fien’s career.

Haggerty, a junior from Glen Ellyn, Ill., led two dominant Husker defensive performances last week. Against Purdue, Haggerty tied her career high with 11 blocks, the most by a Big Ten player in three sets this season. She averaged 2.2 blocks per set on the week and had six kills and a .444 hitting percentage. After helping limit the Boilermakers to a .098 hitting percentage, Haggerty and the Huskers held Indiana to a -.013 hitting percentage on Saturday. It’s Haggerty’s second-career B1G Defensive Player of the Week honor.

The Huskers are back in action Wednesday at 7 p.m. against Michigan State.
