Three Bulldogs Selected CIAA Players of the Week

BOWIE, Md. - Seniors Jared Johnston (Dumfries, Va.) and Omar Fahnbulleh (Silver Spring, Md.) along with redshirt sophomore Curtis Pumphrey (Laurel, Md.) were selected as CIAA Players of the Week by the conference Sports Information Directors.

Fahnbulleh played an instrumental role in helping the Bulldogs to a team season-best 557 yards of total offense and was voted the Offensive Lineman of the Week. Johnston set a new BSU Season Passing Yards record in the Bulldogs 76-19 thrashing of Lincoln. The old mark was 1,538 set in 2010. He completed 13-of-23 passes for 262 yards (longest of 56) and two scores and was the Quarterback of the Week. Pumphrey made a statement from the very start of the game versus Lincoln, blocking a field goal and returning it 70 yards for a touchdown. Additionally, Pumphrey had six punt returns for 93 yards (56 longest) to go along with three tackles and selected as Special Teams Player of the Week.

The Bulldogs closeout the 2013 season on the road at Elizabeth City State on Saturday (November 9th). Game time is 1 pm in ECSU's Roebuck Stadium. CLICK HERE to follow the game via live stats.
