Rivier's Almario selected as ECAC North Player of the Week

(Centerville, Mass.) It has been recently announced the Rivier's Aaron Almario has been named the Corvais ECAC Men's Volleyball North Player of the Week for the week ending on March 16.

Almario was a monster on defense for the Raiders, back bonning the sixth ranked team to a 2-1 week. The 6-foot 7-inch middle blocker registered 20 blocks in just 12 sets for a 1.66 blocks per set average for Rivier. Almario, playing in his home state for the first time in his career, recorded nine blocks in a five set win over #8 UC Santa Cruz.

This is the second time this season that Almario has been named the Corvais ECAC Player of the Week.

Almario and the #6 Raiders will host Emerson College and Mount Ida College in a pair of Great Northeast Athletic Conference contests tomorrow night inside the Muldoon Gymnasium, beginning at 6pm.
