INDIANAPOLIS — After guiding Drury volleyball to a 4-0 weekend at the SBU Invitational, Panthers junior Jacy Bray and sophomore Skylar Hilton have been named the Athletic Solutions Great Lakes Valley Conference Setter and Offensive Player of the Week, the league office announced Tuesday.
 
Bray, who totaled 129 assists (10.75 per set) in fueling Drury's sweep of its four matches in Bolivar, becomes the first Panther ever to earn a GLVC Setter of the Week honor. The junior from Nixa, Mo., stretched her streak of consecutive double-digit assist totals to 31 in a row (dating back to Sept. 12, 2025), pacing a Panther offense record the No. 2 hitting percentage (.254) and kill average (13.96 per set) in the GLVC.

Bray registered 33 assists and a season-best two service aces against Arkansas-Monticello, then posted 39 helpers, eight digs and a career-high three kills vs. East Central to help DU to its sixth consecutive straight-set victory.

Hilton delivered team-leading totals of 29 kills and 11 blocks to go along with a blistering .538 hitting percentage over Drury's four wins at SBU, extending its best start to a season in nine years (7-1). The sophomore from Ozark, Mo., matched a season high with 11 kills in Drury's victory over Christian Brothers Saturday, after hitting a season best .692 in DU's tournament opener vs. Arkansas-Monticello the previous afternoon. 

Hilton, who leads the GLVC with her .484 hitting percentage, capped a standout tournament with 16 kills and a season-best seven blocks to help DU close out the weekend with a sweep of East Central for its sixth consecutive victory.
