Honestly shocked Bush didn't get it. Definitely didn't think Colvin would get FOTW over Rodriguez considering she was pulled in the 2nd set against Wisconsin. |

Freshman of the Week Raven Colvin, Purdue MB – Indianapolis, Ind. – Heritage Christian – Major: Accounting • Averaged 1.5 kills and 1.33 blocks per set with a .316 hitting percentage last week in Purdue’s road wins at No. 4 Wisconsin and No. 8 Minnesota • Recorded seven kills and six blocks in Sunday’s win at Minnesota • Helped hold both top-10 opponents to a combined .146 hitting percentage for the weekend • Garners her second career Freshman of the Week award • Last Purdue Freshman of the Week: Raven Colvin (Nov. 1, 2021) I don't know what she did against Minnesota on Sunday - it must have been quite good - but on Friday night vs Wisconsin Colvin got pulled during the second set after back-to-back errors, replaced by Trammell, and did not play the third or fourth sets. She ended up 2 kills, 2 errors on 6 swings. So, kind of an odd choice... |

The same schools get the recognition week in and week out…these weekly awards are pointless if you don’t look past the top B1G programs.

I feel like Blossom has won it every week lately |

I'm glad BTN got it right and made sure this match would be televised! Should be a good one.

Now I can move on to complaining that the B1G has a schedule with only 4 days off before the start of the NCAA Tournament. I wonder if one or both teams will rest some key players so they are fresh for the big dance. |

A match between two possibly Top 10 teams that could decide seeding/hosting -- very doubtful Cook or Shondell are going to rest any of their starters. Too much on the line. The players are trained for this part of the season. |

The players are trained for this part of the season. The only reason I think it is a slight possibility is the in an interview a few weeks ago, John Cook was talking about the 2011 season and how he thought the Huskers fought so hard for the conference championship and a #2 seed that they were spent when the tournament started. That is the year the Huskers were knocked out of the tournament in the second round by K-State. |

That match could be a B1G Championship game - NCAA Tourney approaching or not, I have a hard time believing Cook would hand it over without a fight.

This match could be for the B1G Title for 1, both or neither of these 2 teams. How that plays out will determine if anyone who may need rest gets some… |
