Caitlin Ogletree Named C-USA Setter of the Week

Freshman Earns Fourth League Award This Season

University of Houston freshman Caitlin Ogletree was named the Conference USA Setter of the Week, the league office announced Monday. This is Ogletree’s fourth C-USA honor this season.

 The Montgomery, Texas, native averaged 12.10 assists per set and 3.00 digs per set as the Cougars split matches against Marshall last weekend. She opened the weekend with 56 assists and 14 digs against the Thundering Herd and followed that up with a career-high 65 assists and 16 digs for her seventh double-double of the season. Ogletree also had two service aces, four blocks and three kills in the 3-2 win over Marshall. Her 121 assists total topped the league standings for the week.

 Ogletree leads the team and ranks fourth in the conference with an 11.00 assist-per-game average.

 She earned her first career Setter of the Week award on Sept. 26 before earning back-to-back honors on Oct. 10 and Oct. 17. Ogletree is also the only four-time C-USA Setter of the Week this season.
