“It’s nice to see that Karin and Bluffton are getting some recognition that they deserve,” Head Coach Amanda Curtis said. “It is good to see her get some rewards for working so hard. I look for her to keep improving and working hard as we move into conference play.”
Schaller currently ranks 11th in the conference in scoring, leads in rebounding per game, is 10th in field goal percentage and leads in blocked shots. The Beavers will open conference action this Wednesday when they travel to Manchester College.
