ATTLEBORO, Mass. – For the second time in as many weeks, Lesley University junior Kaylee Deluga (Dennis, Mass.) has been tabbed as the New England Collegiate Conference Player of the Week. NECC Assistant Commissioner for Media Relations Rebecca Mullen made the announcement today in the conference Weekly Report.

This marks the third time this season that Deluga has garnered the honor. The junior has continued her dominant streak, leading Lesley to a pair of conference victories last week. On the season, Deluga ranks second in the NECC in total kills, kills/set, hitting percentage, and blocks/set.
