MADISON, S.D. -- For the second time this season and the fifth time in her BU career, senior libero Taylan Keefer has been named the North Star Athletic Association Defender of the Week for her performance in the Bruins' five-set win at Mayville State University last Friday night. 

Keefer compiled a career-high 45 digs as BU overcame a 2-1 deficit to record the five-set victory over the Comets. Her dig total was the second-highest single-match dig total in school history. 

Keefer currently leads the Bruins and ranks fourth in the NSAA with 4.82 digs per set.  

The 15th-ranked Bruins (15-4, 3-1 NSAA) will host Dickinson State University this Thursday, Oct. 5, at 6 p.m. in the Gordon Lozier Athletic Center.
