Bjornstad averaged 11.5 points, 2.0 rebounds, and a block across Union’s two games to secure his first-career GSC Freshman of the Week award. The freshman began the week with 11 points, swatted a shot, dished out two assists, and pulled down three rebounds in a matchup against Drury. He then built on this against Illinois-Springfield as he dropped a season-high 12 points, including two makes from behind the arc, blocked another shot, had a steal, and grabbed a defensive board.
