Redshirt freshman football player Lenny Williams has been named an IUP Athlete of the Week for the week ending Sunday, Oct. 12. Williams played his best all-around game of the season in Saturday's 47-10 win at Seton Hill. The quarterback broke a Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) record for rushing yards by a quarterback with 205 and a touchdown on just 16 carries. He finished with 362 total yards in the game, the ninth highest single game total in IUP history, finishing 9-of-15 passing for 157 yards and two touchdowns.
The dual threat had eight runs of 10-plus yards, including scampers of 23, 39 and 62 yards, the latter going for a touchdown. All three of his touchdowns came in the third quarter where the Crimson Hawks scored 30 points alone, breaking the game wide open.
Williams leads IUP with 204.0 total yards per game and ranks sixth in the conference with 87.8 rushing yards per game.
