COLORADO SPRINGS – Oredigger graduate student Drew Stokes was voted RMAC Setter of the Week on Monday after guiding the #11 Colorado School of Mines Volleyball team to a 3-1 record on opening weekend.
 
Stokes' weekend resume included 164 assists at a clip of 12.62 assists per set along with 21 digs, 13 kills, three service aces and two blocks while posting a .480 hitting percentage. Those numbers helped Mines to sweeps of Western Colorado, Northern State and #19 UT Tyler with a four-set loss to #22 Southwest Minnesota State mixed in.
