  • Long Beach State senior Simon Torwie had a monster match for the Beach to earn Big West Men’s Volleyball Offensive Player of the Week. A five-time defensive weekly honoree, this marks Torwie’s first league award of the offensive variety. 

  • The middle blocker from Artà, Balearic Islands, Spain, knocked down 13 kills on 16 errorless swings to hit .812 as top-ranked LBSU defeated No. 15 Lewis, 3-1, on Friday. The 13 kills is a season high for the senior and matches a career-best set on Feb. 3, 2023. 

  • Torwie also led the Beach with six blocks to go along with three digs and one ace in the contest to move LBSU’s season record to 13-1.  

  • Nationally, Torwie is ranked seventh on the season in blocks per set (1.143).
