November 10, 2008
Easton, Mass. (November 10) -- Saint Anselm freshman quarterback Marc Wilson (Farmington, Conn.) and senior linebacker Brian Tormollan (Waterville, Maine) have swept the Northeast-10 Conference Football Weekly Awards, as announced by the league office on Monday. Wilson was named as the league's Offensive Player and Freshman of the Week, while Tormollan earned Defensive Player of the Week honors. The honor marks the second Player of the Week award for Wilson this year, while Tormollan is honored for the first time.
Wilson continued to rewrite the Saint Anselm record book as he rushed for a single-game school-record 285 yards on 35 carries for one touchdown and passed for another in a 28-14 win over Pace in the season finale. Wilson became the program's first 1,000-yard rusher in the first half on a 67-yard touchdown and finished his rookie season with 1,214 yards. In addition, his 270 rushing attempts shatters the previous record of 193. Wilson's 285-yard effort is the single-game high in the Northeast-10 and the third highest in the nation this season. At 121.4 yards per game, Wilson is ranked sixth in the country in rushing yards per contest.
Tormollan capped off his Saint Anselm career with a tremendous effort as he had eight tackles, one fumble recovery and an interception, as well as playing a key role in special teams throughout the game.
In addition to Wilson and Tormollan, junior running back Luke St. Marie (Mill Creek, Wash.) earned a spot on the NE-10 Weekly Honor Roll with a 144-yard, two-touchdown afternoon in the win.
