For the second straight week, a Brooklyn freshman takes the Rookie of the Week award, as Jillian Escobar helped the Bulldogs to a 2-0 week with straight set wins over John Jay and St. Joseph's College-Brooklyn. The newcomer from Francis Lewis High School had 18 kills in six games, a 3.0 average and hit .157 for the period. She currently leads the squad with a 2.1 kills per game average. In addition, the 5'4" outside hitter collected 13 digs, good for a 2.2 average, as the Bulldogs get ready to battle three non-conference opponents this week.
