Daniel Toth Named NECC Player of the Week

DANBURY, Conn. – Endicott men's volleyball junior middle Daniel Toth (Vernon, N.J.) has been named NECC Player of the Week as he exhibited a consistent blocking presence and offensive efficiency in a2-1 week for the Gulls. This is Toth's first collegiate weekly honor.

Toth totaled 19 kills (1.90 per set) on a .484 hitting percentage and went off for 16 total blocks (1.60 per set) in Endicott victories over NECC opponents Regis (3-0) and Newbury (3-1) as well as a straight-set loss to non-conference foe Vassar.

In Endicott's 27-25, 25-10, 25-23 win over Regis on Tuesday, Toth turned in an attacking line of 9-1-12 (.667) with five assisted blocks as well as four digs and a service ace. Three days later against Vassar, the Blue and Green struggled to get their offense in gear but the nation's 23^rd ranked blocking team was solid including Toth who had one solo block and five more assisted stops. The following day, Endicott scored a 25-16, 25-19, 24-26, 25-16 triumph over Newbury thanks in part to Toth's nine kills on a .467 hitting percentage with five block assists and an ace.

Toth now ranks 15^th among NCAA Division III players in blocks per set, averaging 1.11 per set. That number is also tops in the conference.

Endicott (10-10, 9-0 NECC) is off for spring break and will next take on conference opponent Lesley on Wednesday, March 25^th at 7:00 p.m. at home.
