BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Alcorn State quarterback Lenorris Footman, Southern linebacker Aaron Tiller, Grambling State punter Jonathan Wallace and Prairie View A&M cornerback Dominique Weaver have been recognized by the Southwestern Athletic Conference for their outstanding performances during action on Nov. 14.

Offensive Player of the Week

Starting in place of John Gibbs Jr., Footman produced with his arms and legs, accounting for 260 total yards and four touchdowns in the Braves’ 65-13 win at Texas Southern. Footman was 11-of-18 through the air with 185 yards and two scores. On the ground, he rushed for 75 yards and found the end zone twice. All of Footman’s scores came in the first half, where Alcorn State jumped out to a 38-0 lead before the break.

Defensive Player of the Week
Aaron Tiller

Linebacker
LB– So. – 6-1 – 237 – Columbus, Ohio

Tiller spent a lot of time in the Alabama A&M backfield, with four of his five total tackles coming behind the line of scrimmage. Tiller also got to the quarterback for three sacks in Southern’s 46-7 win over Alabama A&M. With the performance, Tiller cracked double-digits in sacks on the season (10) and currently leads the Southwestern Athletic Conference in the category.

He punted five times for 168 yards – an average of 33.6 yards per boot – but four of his punts pinned the Golden Lions inside of their own 20-yard line.
