The first Dean Trailways Female Comet of the Week is junior Rachel Swartz, of Battle Creek, and graduate of Pennfield High School. Swartz recorded four blocks against Adrian College and three more blocks against Calvin University to give her 50 this season and break Olivet’s single-season record. The previous record was 49 by Stefanie Lang during the 2014-15 season. Swartz has at least one block in 16 of 18 games this season, including seven games with at least four. She enters this week with 72 career blocks to rank fourth on the all-time list at Olivet.
