Two Valley City State athletes have received recognition with North Star Athletic Association (NSAA) honors.
NSAA Volleyball Attacker-of-the-Week is Clarissa Olson a 5’9″, Junior, middle blocker, hit a blistering .639 for the week and racked up 24 kills as VCSU split a pair of North Star volleyball home matches.
The NSAA Football Defensive Player of the Week is Travon Smith a 6’3″ – 194 lbs., Sophomore – defensive back who was a game-changer for Valley City State despite a 31-28 North Star football home loss to Dakota State. He had an interception in the end zone and blocked a punt, both of which led to Vikings’ second-half touchdowns and a comeback that came up just short.
