LSC PLAYERS OF THE WEEK
Co-LSC North Offensive
Terry Mayo, Texas A&M-Commerce, Jr., Quarterback, Greensboro, N.C./Reedley JC    
Mayo came off the bench and had a hand in all five touchdowns in the Lions' 41-39 triple overtime win over Southeastern Oklahoma. He went on to throw for 240 yards and three touchdowns, completing 18 of 26 passes as well as two rushing touchdowns. The three touchdowns are the most by an A&M-Commerce quarterback since Trent Miller threw for three in the Lions' other win in 2007 against Texas A&M-Kingsville.

Ryan O'Hara, Central Oklahoma, Sr., Quarterback, Pasadena, Calif./John Muir HS    
Former starter came off the bench to throw for 183 yards and two touchdowns in the second half to rally UCO from a 21-10 deficit to a 24-21 road LSC North win.  Started all last year and the first three games this season before being benched, then came in to start the second half and had TD passes of 10 and 41 yards - double his season total - to key UCO's comeback.  Game-winning score came on third-and-goal from the ECU 10 when O'Hara avoided heavy pressure after a bad snap from shotgun formation and hit tight end Brock Gruenberg for the score.

LSC North Defensive
Jairus Martin, Southeastern Oklahoma State, Sr., Defensive Back, Antlers, Okla./Antlers HS    Martin picked off two passes against Texas A&M-Commerce...his first interception was a touchdown saving grab on a Commerce pass in the endzone...his second pick was returned 65 yards for a touchdown, the first of the game...he also tallied five tackles, including three solo.

LSC North Special Teams
Chris Quiroga, Texas A&M-Commerce, Jr., Kicker, Simi Valley, Calif./Moorpark JC
Made four extra points and two field goals in the Lions' 41-39 triple overtime win over Southeastern Oklahoma State. He made a season-long 41-yard field goal in the win. For the season he is 17-for-18 on extra points and three-for-four on field goals.

Co-LSC South Offensive
B.J. Vickers, West Texas A&M, Jr., Receiver, Venice, Calif./Venice HS    
With the game hanging in the balance in the fourth quarter, Vickers took a wide receiver screen and eluded several Mustang defenders to race 55 yard for what would prove to the game-winning touchdown as the Buffs defeated No. 12 Midwestern State. The Venice, Calif., native finished the game with four catches and 90 yard receiving for the ball game

Daniel Thomas, Angelo State, Jr., Running Back, Taylor, Texas/Taylor HS    
Thomas rushed for 149 yards and three scores as the Rams downed Eastern New Mexico, 28-21, in double overtime.  Thomas scored on runs of one, five and one yards in the victory. He also moved into fifth place on the ASU all-time rushing list, now with 1,861 career yards.

LSC South Defensive
Jared Brock, West Texas A&M, Jr., Linebacker, Abernathy, Texas/Abernathy HS    
The Buffalo defense stood tall during its biggest test of the season on Saturday night and Brock was again the unit's leader as he helped limit the top-ranked MSU defense to their lowest offensive output of the season. The Abernathy, Texas, native collected a team-high eight tackles and notched his third sack of the season. Brock also blocked a second quarter Mustang field goal attempt.

LSC South Special Teams
Nathan Robinson, Tarleton State, Jr., CB, Rockingham, N.C./Richmond Senior HS    
Robinson gave the Texans good field position in each of his three returns that gained yardage.  The average field position after he returned the ball on punts was the Tarleton 44-yardline and on kickoffs was the Tarleton 42-yardline.
