NEW YORK, N.Y. – Seton Hall senior Abby Thelen (Ft. Mitchell, Ky.) was named to the BIG EAST Women's Volleyball Weekly Honor Roll on Tuesday.

For the weekend, she averaged 4.71 kills and 5.21 points per set with a .338 attack percentage.

Creighton's Kari Zumach was named BIG EAST Freshman of the Week. Those joining Thelen on the Honor Roll include: Georgetown's Alyssa Sinnette, St. John's Amanda Sanabia, Villanova's Allie Olsonoski and Xavier's Laura Grossman.
The Pirates will return to action on Friday, November 9 when they host local BIG EAST rival St. John's at Walsh Gym on Senior Night. Match time is scheduled for 8:00 p.m.
