MARLBOROUGH, Mass.— After helping the team to a pair of victories and reaching a personal milestone, Babson College senior Zoe Ackerman (Aurora, Colo.) was named New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) Women's Volleyball Co-Offensive Athlete of the Week Tuesday morning.

Ackerman put together a monster week totaling 179 assists and averaging 10.53 assists per set as No. 18 Babson hit .223 as a team while splitting four matches. The senior setter handed out 37 assists in a 3-0 win over Emerson on Tuesday and had 47 assists and nine digs in Friday's four-set loss to defending NCAA runner-up La Verne. Ackerman registered a season-high 50 assists to go along with 11 digs and three aces in a five-set loss to Claremont-Mudd-Scripps and then totaled 45 assists and nine digs in a reverse sweep of Pomona-Pitzer on Saturday.

A three-time All-Region first team and All-America honorable mention, Ackerman also became just the third setter in program history to surpass 3,600 career assists in the win over the Sagehens. She ranks second in the NEWMAC this season with 10.20 assists per set and sits fourth in the league with 0.58 service aces per set.

Babson (13-4, 4-1 NEWMAC) returns to conference play on Wednesday with a 6 p.m. match at WPI in Worcester.
