BROOKVILLE, N.Y. – The Northeast-10 Conference and East Coast Conference garnered two LIU Post student-athletes with the league's weekly awards on Monday, Oct. 15.
 
After another outstanding performance Saturday, the NE10 tabbed sophomore defensive back Nazir Streater as the league's Defensive Player of the Week for the second-consecutive week, while the ECC named junior libero Abby Eckhardt as the women's volleyball Defensive Player of the Week.
 
Streater made a ton of noise two weeks ago with a highlight-reel interception against Shippensburg University that earned the top spot in the ESPN week seven College Football Top 10 Plays of the Week. The same trend carried into his homecoming performance against Saint Anselm College where he intercepted Hawks quarterback Erik Fairweather three times, coming within one interception of the program-record.
 
Eckhardt played a pivotal role in leading the Pioneer women's volleyball team to a 3-0 week; defeating the New York Institute of Technology, 3-1 (25-21, 25-22, 20-25, 25-21) on Wednesday, Oct. 10, and Bentley University, 3-2 (25-21, 16-25, 25-19, 23-25, 15-10) and American International College, 3-2 (25-16, 25-22, 25-23, 25-23, 15-8) on Sunday, Oct. 14.
 
In the Pioneers' match against NYIT Eckhardt finished with a team-high 20 digs. Against Bentley she recorded 23 digs and five assists wrapped up the with a match-high 21 digs against AIC.
 
On the week she had 64 digs and averaged 4.57 digs per set.
