Grover turned in an outstanding trio of matches last weekend, all coming on the road against strong North Division opponents.

She recorded at least 10 kills, and no more than two errors in three matches at Saginaw Valley State, Ferris State and Grand Valley State. In the Chargers' 3-0 win over Grand Valley State Sunday, Grover hit a season-best .625 while recording 11 kills. In Saturday's match at Ferris State, Grover led the Chargers with 10 kills.

For the season, Grover ranks fourth in the GLIAC with a .356 hitting percentage, and is averaging nearly one block per match. She ranks second on the team in 2011, with 113 kills and is second in total blocks with 35.

Grover earned her first GLIAC South Division Player of the Week honor back on Sept. 20, 2010. This also marks the second week in a row a Charger has won the award. Senior Ashlee Crowder picked up her sixth career honor a week ago.
