  • CSUN junior Griffin Walters matched a career high as the Matadors upended No. 6 Stanford en route to Big West Offensive Player of the Week honors. This is the first weekly award for a CSUN player in the 2023 season, and the first since a Matador trio took home honors on Feb. 28, 2022. 

  • After sitting out Wednesday's match versus Vanguard due to injury, Walters matched a career-high with 17 kills while hitting .300 on a career-high 40 swings to help lead CSUN to victory in the five-set thriller. The outside hitter also added eight digs, two aces and two blocks. 

  • The product of Sacramento is sitting in the top 10 in The Big West in attacks, kills and points per set and rates 19th nationally in aces per set (.516). 

  • This is Walters’ second career weekly award after picking up Freshman of the Week honors on Feb. 24, 2020.
