NANAIMO — Two VIU Mariners have been named PACWEST Athletes of the Week.

Fifth year Mariner Zach Grigg won the Male Volleyball award after helping VIU to a pair of three set victories over their island rival Camosun.

He combined for 33 points and 17 digs for the 4-0 Mariners.

Grigg and his teammates will look to remain perfect this weekend with two home matches against the University of the Fraser Valley.
