The Big 12 has announced its week two volleyball award winners for the 2021 season. Texas’s Logan Eggleston captured Offensive Player of the Week while Texas Tech’s KJ Adams took home Defensive Player of the Week and Oklahoma’s Peyton Dunn was tabbed Rookie of the Week.
The reigning Big 12 Conference Player of the Year helped guide the Longhorns to two wins over ranked opponents, defeating No. 10 Minnesota on the road and No. 20 Stanford inside Gregory Gymnasium. The junior had 4.29 kills per set and finished with 17 digs, six blocks, and one service ace while averaging 4.93 points per set in the two matches. In the sweep over No. 20 Stanford, the 2020 AVCA First Team All-American hit .500. Eggleston won five Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week awards during the 2020 season.
Adams led Texas Tech to a 3-1 record during the week while averaging 5.00 digs per set. The graduate transfer enjoyed a personal season-high of 23 digs in a four-set win against Texas State and then matched that outing with 23 digs in a sweep of Rhode Island. This is Adams’s first Big 12 weekly award.
Dunn recorded three consecutive matches with at least 30 assists, helping OU to a 3-0 weekend at the Gonzaga Invitational. The freshman was named to the All-Tournament team while tallying 10 kills, 20 digs, and nine blocks.
