WHITEFISH -- Three Rocky Mountain College Battlin' Bears earned Frontier Conference Player of the Week honors, the league announced on Monday.

Ayla Embry earned the volleyball defender of the week award. The freshman libero from Bozeman averaged 4.75 digs per set in a loss to MSU Billings and wins over Lewis-Clark State and No. 18-ranked Montana Tech. Embry posted a serving average of 93 percent last week. This is the third selection for Embry this year.

Natalie Hilderman was named the volleyball setter of the week. The junior from Red Lodge averaged 9.58 assists and 3.17 digs during a loss to MSU Billings and wins over Lewis-Clark State and No. 18 Montana Tech.
