LANCASTER, PA – On the heels of a four-match winning streak and a 2-0 week in conference action, Johns Hopkins sophomore Ella Wismer has been named the Centennial Conference Defensive Player of the Week. It marks the first weekly conference honor of Wismer's career and the second conference weekly award for a Blue Jay this season.
 
Wismer powered Johns Hopkins to wins over Washington College and Haverford, totaling seven blocks for an average of 1.00 per set while also producing four digs across seven sets. The middle blocker also added 16 kills on a .536 hitting percentage.
 
She opened the weekend with nine kills on a stellar .818 hitting percentage to pair with three blocks in the straight-set win over the Shorewomen. Wismer followed that performance with seven kills and four blocks in a four-set win against Haverford.
 
Johns Hopkins returns to action Wednesday, November 4, when the Blue Jays square off against Gettysburg in their final regular-season home match. First serve is set for 7 p.m. inside Goldfarb Gymnasium.
