St. Louis, Mo. -- The Youngstown State football team
had the offensive, defensive and
special teams player of the week in
the Gateway Football Conference with
tailback P.J. Mays earning the honor
on offense, cornerback Sherod Holmes
and placekicker Jake Stewart picking
up accolades for their performances
against Samford.
Mays finished his YSU career with a 137-yard performance and
scored two touchdowns -- one on a
14-yard run and one on a 51-yard
screen pass -- to set the league
record for career touchdowns with
45. Holmes set a school record with
four takeaways against the Bulldogs.
He had two interceptions and
recovered two fumbles in the game.
He also added two pass breakups to
go along with six tackles. Stewart

yards -- and making four extra
points for a total of 13 points in
the game.
YSU was the only Gateway team to play on Saturday, but all
three players were picked by the
Gateway for their outstanding
performances. |
