November 01, 2021 | Women's Volleyball
SAN FRANCISCO – Senior libero Zoe Fleck was named Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Week for the second time this season, as announced by the conference Monday afternoon.
Fleck was honored for the award for the first time of her career earlier this season on Oct. 11. UCLA leads the Pac-12 with eight weekly honors (one Offensive Player of the Week, three Defensive Player of the Week and four Freshman Player of the Week awards).
The Bruins have earned back-to-back Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Week honors (McCall, 10/25).
Fleck led the Bruins in digs for the 18th and 19th time this season in UCLA's two victories last weekend over No. 22 Washington State and No. 8 Washington which vaulted the Bruins into sole possession of first place in the Pac-12 standings since 1999.
Her 27 digs against the Cougars marked a new UCLA career-high, averaging 5.40 per set. Fleck also notched the second double-double of her career against Washington State with 11 assists.
On Sunday, Fleck helped hold the Husky attack to a season-low .118 hitting percentage in UCLA's first sweep of Washington since 2011. She tallied 10 digs in that match to push her weekend total to 37 (4.62 digs per set).
Fleck ranks fourth in the Pac-12 with 4.19 digs per set and leads the Bruins with 323 digs.
