STERLING, Va. - Sophomore wide receiver Alex Koors
of DePauw University and sophomore defensive back Chalankis Brown
of Sewanee-University of the South were named to D3football.com's National Team of
the Week for games played on Saturday, September 20.
Koors caught eight passes for 220 yards in a 27-14 Southern
Collegiate Athletic Conference win at Centre.
His 220 receiving yards equaled the second-best single-game
performance in school history and was the second best in SCAC
(1991-present) history. Canann Factor of Trinity had 231 yards
receiving against McMurry on Sept. 12, 1998.
Koors' performance also ranks as the most receiving yards in a game
between two SCAC opponents. Five of his receptions were for 25 or
more yards and four were for 35 or more yards.
Brown, a 2007 All-SCAC selection led Sewanee's defense in
Saturday's 19-0 SCAC win over Colorado College with four
interceptions and seven tackles, two of which were for a loss.
Brown also logged 64 yards of returns on his pick-offs.
Four picks in a single game ties the Sewanee school
record.
For the season, Brown has 19 tackles, five interceptions and a
blocked kick. He is also currently leading the league in
interceptions and is third in passes defended.
"I am very proud of Chalankis as he is one of our best leaders on
and off the field for us. His work ethic is contagious, and I look
forward to his leading our secondary for the next three years,"
commented Sewanee coach Robert Black.
