Cedar Rapids Prairie junior Kate Busswitz is the winner of the Metro Spotlight Award for high school girls this week, the Metro Sports Report announced Sunday.

Busswitz, who stands 6-foot-1, is one of the top volleyball players in the Mississippi Valley Conference and has committed to play at the University of Northern Iowa.

Busswitz helped Prairie win the Linn-Mar Invitational Saturday, capped by a 21-14, 21-12 victory over sixth-ranked Linn-Mar in the finals. The Hawks won six straight matches in the day-long tournament.

Busswitz leads Prairie this season with 72 kills and 13 aces. She ranks second on the club with 64 digs and 25 blocks.

Prairie (8-3) will host Linn-Mar Tuesday night in a rematch of Saturday's championship match.
