NDSU Players Named FCS Players of the Week
North Dakota State had two players recognized
as Football Championship Subdivision national performers of the week by The
Sports Network and the College Football Performance Awards on Monday, Oct. 28.
NDSU
junior Christian Dudzik was named Sports Network Special Teams
co-Player of the Week and CFPA National Punt Returner of the Week after scoring
his first two career touchdowns on punt returns of 43 and 68 yards in
Saturday's 56-10 win over Indiana State. He shared the
Sports Network award with Eastern Kentucky punter Jordan Berry, who
punted three times for a 59.3 yard average and scored a 25-yard touchdown on a
fake field goal.
Bison
senior Ryan Smith was named FCS National Kickoff Returner
of the Week by the CFPA. Smith returned a kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown,
answering Indiana State's kickoff return touchdown
on the previous play. He tied the NDSU kickoff return record of 100 yards
set in 1923 by Elmer Parisien against South Dakota.
