Week 8, November 2, 2009

OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Harvard junior running back GINO GORDON (Bonita, Calif.) became the first player on record in school history to total 100 rushing and 100 receiving yards in a single game in the Crimson’s 42-21 win over Dartmouth. Gordon tallied 222 yards and three touchdowns on just 12 touches, amassing all of his yardage in three quarters. He rushed for 119 yards on eight attempts (14.9 yards per carry) and had all three of his scores on the ground (eight, 15 and 48 yards) while not losing a yard from scrimmage. Gordon also caught four passes for 103 yards. In all, he averaged 18.3 yards per touch with 10 of his 12 touches resulting in either a first down or a touchdown.


DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Yale junior defensive back ADAM MONEY (Whiteland, Ind.) made the key defensive plays in the Bulldogs’ 23-22 come-from-behind win over Columbia. Money had a game-saving tackle late in the fourth quarter that stopped the Lions’ Leon Ivery from scoring inside the five-yard line after a 75-yard gain. Yale forced and recoverd a fumble on the very next play at the two-yard line to stop Columbia from what could have been the potential game-clinching touchdown. On the next Columbia series with just over two minutes remaining, he forced a fumble that he recovered at the Yale 49-yard line. Money’s play set up the Elis’ game-winning scoring drive with less than a minute left in the game. He finished the game with five tackles and added 148 all-purpose yards (99 kickoff return yards and 49 punt return yards) on his first day of return duties.


SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Brown sophomore punter NATE LOVETT (East Providence, R.I.) helped control the field position battle by punting eight times for an average of 44.2 yards per punt in the Bears’ 14-7 overtime loss to Penn. Lovett booted a 72-yard punt, the seventh longest punt in Brown football history. Three times he pinned Penn inside its own 20-yard line, including one at the four-yard line.


ROOKIE OF THE WEEK
Harvard freshman running back TREAVOR SCALES (Stone Mountain, Ga.) collected a game-high 120 rushing yards with two touchdowns while finishing with 131 total yards of offense in the Crimson’s win over Dartmouth. His first score came on a 40-yard scamper and he also bullied his way in from one yard out as he averaged 6.0 yards per carry without losing a yard from scrimmage.
