Old Titan Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Mike Daum Of SDSU was named Summit League Player of the Week today, continuing a disturbing trend of opposition players being honored in such a fashion following huge games against ORU. It's kinda like getting "posterized" ever Monday morning by the league office. On the other side of the coin, ORU has yet to have a player so recognized this season, and with just three weeks left in the league schedule to do so. The last time ORU went a full season in the Mid-Con/Summit without at least one player earning Player Of The Week honors? That would be 2000-01, Scott Sutton's second year at the helm: Nov. 20 Brad Buddenborg, Oakland Nov. 27 Jeff Monaco, Southern Utah Dec. 5 Desmond Harrison, Youngstown State Dec. 11 Lubos Barton, Valparaiso Dec. 18 Michael Watson, Kansas City Dec. 26 Dan Carlisle, IUPUI Jan. 2 Jason Rozycki, Oakland Jan. 8 Craig Haese, Youngstown State Jan. 15 Michael Jackson, Kansas City Jan. 22 Jeff Monaco, Southern Utah Jan. 29 Cory Fosdyck, Western Illinois Feb. 5 Dan Beus, Southern Utah Feb. 12 Raitis Grafs, Valparaiso Feb. 19 Dan Carlisle, IUPUI / Fred House, Southern Utah Feb. 26 Fred House, Southern Utah The Golden Eagles tied for seventh out of nine schools with a 5-11 league record that year, and went 10-19 overall. I guess, in terms of milestones, that's probably not the season you would want to be hearkening back to. But, on a positive note, Caleb, Ken and that gang arrived on campus just two years later, and the rest, as they say, is history! Wonder what the picture will look like two years from NOW?

Old Titan Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 The coup de grace... The only remaining suspense is whether any Golden Eagles will be recognized in the postseason awards later this week. Here's hoping AJ gets at least honorable mention all-conference (he actually deserves second or third team), or if Emmanuel is recognized in some form or fashion as a newcomer.
