FRC - U SPORTS Football players of the Week (#1)
Mount Allison quarterback Jakob Loucks, Saint Mary’s defensive back Antoine Lyte-Myers and Ottawa kicker Lewis Ward are U SPORTS Football Players of the Week, for the period ending August 27, 2017
A second-year psychology student from Cornwall, Ont., Loucks threw three touchdowns in Mount Allison's 64-23 win Saturday over the Acadia Axemen in Sackville, N.B. The 2016 winner of the Peter Gorman Trophy as U SPORTS Rookie of the Year, Loucks went 29 for 36 for 402 yards passing and had four carries for 53 yards rushing in the 2017 season opener.
A third-year commerce student from Toronto, Lyte-Myers had two interceptions in the Huskies' 38-23 win over the two-time U SPORTS national semifinalist StFX X-Men in Friday's AUS season opener. He returned the first six yards and the second 10 yards for a touchdown. Lyte-Myers also had two solo tackles in the win, including a sack for a loss of one yard.
Ward, a Kingston, Ont., native was locked in all afternoon, going 6 of 8 for the game, including two in overtime that led Ottawa to a win. His longest field goal on the day was from 43 yards. The fifth-year kicker was the focal point of the scoring for the Gee-Gees in a victory on the road in Guelph to begin the season. Ward was an OUA Second Team All-Star in 2016-17.
