For the week ending October 11, 2003
Jenny Burris
Volleyball
Jenny Burris, who made the switch from outside hitter to the defensive position of libero this season, is now three-for-three. The Lawrence volleyball team has played in three tournaments this season, including this past weekend's University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh Classic, and the senior from Gurnee, Ill., has been named to the all-tournament team every time. Burris had 116 digs, an average of 7.25 per game, during the four-game tournament at UW-Oshkosh, with only 18 receiving errors in 184 chances in 16 games.
Justin Berrens
Football
Halfback Justin Berrens of Waupaca ran 32 times Saturday and gashed the St. Norbert College defense, which entered the game third in the nation in rushing defense at 51.8 yards per game, for 215 yards. It marked the first time any back had run for more than 200 yards against the Green Knights since Lawrence's Brad Olson did it in 1997, and Berrens had more yards (215) than St. Norbert's previous four Midwest Conference opponents combined (153).
Zach Michael
Football
Senior wide receiver Zach Michael of Appleton put on a record-setting performance for the Lawrence football team Saturday vs. No. 23-ranked St. Norbert College. The former Appleton East star caught 10 passes for 220 yards and four touchdowns and was named the Midwest Conference Offensive Player of the Week. Michael's four touchdown catches set a school record, breaking the tie he had with five other players. He is one of only three Lawrence players to score four touchdowns in a game. The others are Dave Mulford vs. Knox (1957) and Brad Olson vs. Lake Forest (1995).
Jeff Henderson
Golf
Jeff Henderson carded a 3-under par 69 last Friday at Soangetaha Country Club to claim medalist honors at the Knox Invitational. It tied the career low round for Henderson, a Reedsburg native and the 2002 Midwest Conference champion.
