Defensive Player of the Week
Demetrius Simmons / SR / Wilson College / Mechanicsburg, Pa. / Mechanicsburg
Simmons controlled the defense at the net this week as he helped his Phoenix squad go 1-1 in a pair of conference tilts. The senior picked up four blocks, including one solo, in a hardfought 3-1 loss to Lancaster Bible. He then backed that performance with five stonewalls in a straight-set victory over Neumann. He'd also tack on five kills and three service aces.
This is Simmons' first United East weekly accoalde of the season and his second of his career (02/24/25)
