IRVING, Texas – No. 6 Baylor volleyball’s senior MB Preslie Anderson has been named the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week, as announced by the conference office Wednesday morning.

In her first two matches as a Bear, Anderson led the team with 12 total blocks, averaging 1.5 per set, in two wins over North Texas and Pepperdine. The senior transfer from Cal recorded a solo block in each of the two contests, helping BU to its eighth double-digit block performance of the season against the Waves. She was key in Baylor holding its opponents to -.019 and .133 hitting percentages on the weekend.

After spending three seasons in the Pac-12, Anderson picks up her first career weekly conference honor. This is BU’s eighth award of the season, a conference most.
