INDIANAPOLIS, IND. – Milwaukee junior Kerri Schuh has been named Horizon League Volleyball Offensive Player of the Week, while Green Bay sophomore Carmen Leitermann has earned Defensive Player of the Week honors for the period of Oct. 25-31.

Schuh, a right side hitter from Appleton, Wis., tallied 44 kills (4.40 kills per set) at a .447 hitting clip, leading the Panthers to three victories last week en route to her second consecutive offensive award.  She had 16 kills in a sweep of DePaul on Tuesday, 11 in a three-set win at Loyola on Friday and 17 in a 3-1 victory at Valparaiso on Saturday.  Schuh led a strong defensive effort as well with 32 digs (3.20 dps) and 11 blocks (1.10 dps).  She also tallied seven assists and one ace on the week.
