Senior football player Dorian Lane was named an IUP Athlete of the Week for the week ending Sunday, Sept. 20. Lane was one of the key defensive cogs for the Crimson Hawks as they defeated visiting Lock Haven 38-13 on Saturday afternoon at Miller Stadium. The middle linebacker finished with seven total tackles, including five solo stops, and had one tackle behind the line of scrimmage.
His biggest play of the game came early in the third quarter, as he intercepted a Lock Haven pass and took it back 19 yards for his second career touchdown. The return helped break open the game and increase IUP's lead to 24-3. He helped the Crimson Hawks limit Lock Haven to just 285 yards of total offense.
Through two games this season, Lane has nine tackles, including seven solo tackles.
