Rice teammates receive WAC honors

DENVER (AP) - Rice running back Michael Perry and teammate LaDouphyous McCalla on Monday were named Western Athletic Conference Mountain Division offensive and defensive players of the week.

Perry, the WAC's leading rusher, ran for 133 yards and two touchdowns, while McCalla had two interceptions in Rice's 35-23 win over previously unbeaten New Mexico.

Colorado State wide receiver Geoff Turner was named WAC Pacific Division offensive player of the week after catching nine passes for 159 yards in a 14-7 win over Wyoming.

A.J. Gass, in his third game back from a hand injury, received WAC Pacific Division defensive honors after recording 15 tackles and forcing a fumble in Fresno State's 20-17 upset of Air Force.

Brigham Young's Jaron Dabney and San Jose State's Omarr Smith were named special teams players of the week in the Mountain and Pacific divisions, respectively.

Dabney returned a punt 83 yards for a touchdown, while Smith had a 84-yard punt return for San Jose State's only TD.Send a Letter to the Editor about This Story | Start or Join A Discussion about This Story
