MacLennan

Landree MacLennan has been chosen as the KCAC Volleyball Setter of the Week, for her efforts in the Coyotes’ two wins last week over Ottawa and Saint Mary.

MacLennan, a freshman from Byers, Colo., averaged 11.33 assists per game for the Coyotes this week.

MacLennan’s play was key for the Coyotes as they snapped a three match losing skid with the sweep of Ottawa last Tuesday.
