-This is a committee of volunteer VT'ers that submit their picks for conference players of the week, freshman of the week, along with national awards. Committee members can submit picks for as few or as many conferences as they like, but I will only include them in the results if more than half the submitters include that conference to avoid bias.

Should have made it a Wisconsin 3-headed freshman of the week monster with Jardine (I know playing one match hurt her chances, but still...)

I forgot about Stubbe. I probably would have voted for her instead of Luper. Stubbe really helped in the match that Hodge was out. She was strong in all three matches that AZ played.
