ST. PAUL, Minn. - Brady Turriff and Carter Bilitz were both honored as UMAC football athletes of the week, the conference announced on Tuesday morning.

Turriff was selected as the offensive athlete of the week for his third-straight 300-yard performance. He finished with 29 completions, 324 yards and four touchdowns against Northwestern. The 29 completions set a new MLC single-game record. 

Over the past three games, Turriff has now thrown for 1,051 yards and 14 TDs without committing a turnover.

Bilitz was the conference's pick for special teams athlete of the week thanks to his game-changing PAT block, which ended up being the difference in the 35-34 win.

It's the second time this season Bilitz has made an impact play on special teams. Two weeks ago against Crown, Bilitz pounced on a muffed punt in the first quarter, setting the Knights offense up inside the 10 yard line.

The football team has now collected six weekly honors over the past three weeks.
