BOZEMAN— Montana State freshman Jourdain Klein was named the Big Sky Conference volleyball Offensive Player of the Week after helping the Bobcats to a 2-0 record last week, averaging 3.13 kills and 1.13 aces per set, while hitting .358 from the field. MSU swept its road trip at Northern Arizona and Southern Utah for the first time in school history.
