Gettysburg’s Sturges, Huson named CC Players of the Week
GETTYSBURG, Pa. – Tom Sturges (Ridgefield, CT/Ridgefield) and Josh Huson (McLean, VA/McLean), members of the Gettysburg College football team, have been named Centennial Conference (CC) Players of the Week for games of Oct. 8.
Sturges, a sophomore tailback, was named the CC Co-Offensive Player of the Week, the third time he has earned the conference’s weekly honor this season. He carried 37 times for 187 yards in the Bullets’ 20-17 win over nationally ranked McDaniel on Saturday, his fourth 100-yard game of 2005. He had eight carries for 44 yards on Gettysburg’s game-winning drive in the final minutes of regulation.
Through the season’s first five games, Sturges leads the CC with 699 rushing yards, an average of 139.8 yards per game. He also tops the conference with 149.4 all-purpose yards per game.
Huson, a freshman kicker, was named the CC Special Teams Player of the Week after capping the winning drive with a 34-yard field goal, snapping a 17-all tie with 1:10 remaining. His first field goal of the day – and first of his collegiate career – sailed 48 yards, tying a 29-year-old program record. He leads the CC in extra points made (13) and attempted (14).
Ryan McGarry is also honored as an "Other Outstanding Performers on Defense" award winner!
Gettysburg (2-3, 1-0 CC) returns to action on Friday at Johns Hopkins (5-0, 2-0 CC) in a battle of the conference’s lone unbeaten teams. Game time is 7 p.m.
