This story actually broke yesterday, but as with all right things, it is better to be late than never. Especially when it is concerning the Mountain West Conference recognizing some pretty great athletic work.
Yesterday the conference released the weekly offensive and defensive volleyball player of the week honors. This week Boise State’s own Maddi Osburn was selected for her performances from last Thursday through Saturday at the Boise State invitational.

In the first four weeks of the volleyball season, the Broncos have been featured in two of them. Sierra Nobley and Ms. Osburn were both recognized in the second week for their work.
The Broncos will, likely, get featured again as the Broncos head into the conference slate. This Thursday the Broncos head down to Las Vegas to face off against UNLV and look to continue extend their current four match winning streak. Last year the Broncos swept the Rebels in the regular season.
