APP STATE DOMINATES SOCON FOOTBALL AWARDS
|
BOONE, N.C. — The Southern Conference office announced on Monday that Appalachian State University quarterback Armanti Edwards (Greenwood, S.C./Greenwood) and cornerback Cortez Gilbert (Goldsboro, N.C./Charles B. Aycock) have been named the league's Offensive and Defensive Players of the Week, respectively, for their performances in No. 2 Appalachian's 47-21 dismantling of 12th-ranked The Citadel on Saturday afternoon at Kidd Brewer Stadium.
Overcoming an ankle injury suffered the previous week, Edwards torched The Citadel for 305 yards of total offense and accounted for six of ASU's seven touchdowns in the convincing win. In the process, he became only the 12th player in NCAA Division I history to amass 3,000 passing yards and 3,000 rushing yards in a career.
Gilbert registered a game-high-tying 11 tackles and broke up two passes while helping hold The Citadel's high-powered offense to 14 points and 170 yards below its season averages in the Mountaineers' win.
Edwards and Gilbert are ASU's fourth and fifth SoCon Player-of-the-Week honorees in five games this season. Second-ranked Appalachian (3-2, 1-0 SoCon) continues conference play this coming Saturday when it travels to league-newcomer Samford. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. (ET) at Seibert Stadium in Birmingham, Ala.
