TALLAHASSEE, Fla.- For the second straight week, Florida SouthWestern setter Camilla Brandalise has been named the FCSAA Setter of the Week as announced by the state office Tuesday.

Brandalise led FSW to four wins including three over Top 20 ranked opponents on the week.  Friday she guided the Bucs to a 3-1 victory over #12 New Mexico Military, dishing out 48 assists while also contributing on the defensive end with 5 blocks and 9 digs. Later in the day she recharged the battery and posted a 27 assist, 12 dig double-double for the Bucs in a 3-0 sweep of #3 Northeastern.  Saturday she was back at it again, notching a career high 53 assists in a 3-1 win over Laramie County.
