Georgia Southern finishes the regular season at home this weekend.
NEW ORLEANS – Georgia Southern's Madison Brown has been named the Sun Belt Conference Setter of the Week, the league announced today.
Brown averaged 9.78 assists, 2.0 digs and an ace per set in a 2-0 week for the Eagles. The senior totaled 46 assists, 11 digs and three aces in a 3-2 comeback win at Costal Carolina. The victory broke the Eagles' 13-game losing skid against the Chanticleers that spanned back to 2009 and ended a 10-match home winning streak for Coastal Carolina.
She backed up that performance with 42 assists, seven digs and a career-high six service aces in a 3-1 win at Appalachian State. Brown moved into fifth place on the Georgia Southern all-time assist list with 2,835.
She earns Setter of the Week honors for the third time in her career and is the third Eagle to win a Sun Belt weekly award this season. Ashlyn Lovett has been named Defensive Player of the Week twice (week 5 and week 9), and Grace Slader was named Setter of the Week in week 7.
The Eagles finish off the regular season by hosting Troy and South Alabama Friday and Saturday. Both contests are set for 6 p.m. and will be broadcast on ESPN+. Friday's match is Hawaiian Shirt Night, and Saturday's contest is Senior Night.
